    Hi Corey, another great tutorial as usual : )

    Will you show us how you created the logo you used in the screencast. I have always wondered how you create that chrome sort of border, similar to the iPhone bezel in Photoshop.

    Thanks Corey.

    Thanks for another great tutorial, Corey. Have you ever thought of putting your hands on Navi Humanoid from Avatar, that kind of green giant looking creature.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
