    Good practical clone-source info for retouching problem areas. I can use the tip on many of my photos. Many thanks, Corey!

    I just have to say I am in love with Corey Barker! I got PS CS3 a few weeks ago and have been completely frustrated until today. After coming across this site I have gone through four tutorials and have created wonderful artwork with my pictures in a single day. I couldn’t be more pleased. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and providing these amazing tutorials. You have certainly made my purchase of PS CS3 worth every penny!

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).
