    Thanks for the great tutorials. I thought I’d pass this tip along. When using Adjustment Layers, you can toggle between whether the Adjustment Layer affects all of the layers below it or just one below it by option-clicking on the thin line that separates the Adjustment Layer and art layer you’re working on in the Layers palette.

    Also, you can set the new Adjustment Layer to only affect the layer below it when you first create the Adjustment Layer by selecting the “Use previous layer to create clipping mask” button in the dialog box.

    Hey, this is really a great video. It’s harder for me to understand the “generative” parts of photoshop (I get the colors, editing a photo, seeing it as a field of pixels, etc) but for me Illustrator has the more useful metaphor for making “things”. Boxes, fill/stroke, etc. That being said, Photoshop is so much more useful for generating web-ready graphics, and most tutorials seem to skip over how to use the tools for web-specific purposes. Many thanks.
