    Cory:

    I love your tutorials!!, you are my favorite from the photoshop guys, I want to ask youa favor… I think I accidentally threw away an issue of layers magazine with one of your tutorials, the tutorial was a movie poster effect also that had a silhouette of a girl and beams of light in the back so she looked all black with the splendor, you wrote “american pop star” as a title, I hope you can re create it here so that I can have it back…

    Thanks

    You’re layer is completely filled. Meaning there is no transparency around the shape. You need to select the white area of that layer and delete it.

    HI CORY, HOW ARE YOU? MY QUESTION’S: HOW TO CREATE A TEXT ONE TIME TO BE APPLY OR INPRINTED ON 1000 PHOTOS. THE IDEA IS, AN EXAMPLE: YOU HAVE THIS MESSAGE; “5TH ANIVESSARY OF RED BULL CLUB” TO BE INPRITED ON 5000 PHOTOS, BUT NOT TO DO IT ONE BY ONE…!!!

Fill and Recovery Sliders in Camera Raw

Chances are you’ve noticed that when you attempt to increase the exposure in an image that is underexposed, you are going to clip your highlights, take areas of light color information and make them completely white. Before Camera Raw 4.1, the only way for you to compensate for this would be to dial back the exposure. Now, with the Recovery slider you can bring back some of the detail that was lost in the highlights without affecting the entire image.
