Thank you for sharing… You sure are a GREAT teacher…♫♥
These are great tips, Colin, thank you! I’m also enjoying your Layer Class. Excellent.
Bring on Part II! You’re an excellent resource!
These are excellent tips applicable to everyday use of Photoshop.
Thanks. Yes, keep them coming!
Hi Colin. Yes I know all 10 tips and have used them before. My favorites are:
1) The “Composite Layer” tip. I use this on a daily basis.
2) Add a Group and a Group Mask to a single file to achieve intersecting effects with the layer
mask and the Group Mask. Even add a second Group and Mask for 3 intersecting effects. I use this trick
frequently.
Yes do another Video with more tips – but don’t bother with Text stuff, I never employ Texts in my images.
Please show lighting effects tricks with layers, overlays and mask gradients and mask curves. Also especially
like Adobe Bridge applications; I never use Lightroom anymore.
Thanks Colin. My needs are pretty simple, and with PS Elements not all functions were available but there were enough usable nuggets in there to make it valuable. Nice concise style, too.
Thanks Colin, almost every one new to me, keep those tips coming.
Thank you! Loved all but esp tips about changing multiple texts & dodge & burn .
DEFINITELY a part 2.
Some great tips!! I found the ones on dodging and burning as well as being able to edit multiple text layers at the same time especially helpful.
Great tips, Colin! I was familiar with perhaps half of the tips, but it’s always good to be reminded of them, and then put them to use. The other tips were new gems for me. Looking forward to more of these! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for your advice

You are the first Photoshop instructor to show #9 which my Brooks instructor told me years ago.
Colin, my wife and I are long time users from Scott Kelby, attending several seminars. What a great personality. Always right on.. Thanks for the tips, and the great work that you do. Waiting on a new the funds for a new Mac hopefully, in the next two months and will be able to spend more time on you programs… Keep up the your program, it’s the best. Joe and Carol
thank you so much Colin
the new shortcut for resizing and changing hardness of the brush was new to me.
This was terrific! I noted 15 tips from tips within your tips! And there are at least 6 or 7 that I did not remember – but should because they are so helpful! Thank-you for your excellent instructions!
The composite layer is great. Can I still adjust layers below the composition layer – having trouble with that. Do additional layers above the composite layer effect the look of all below it?
If you adjust layers below, you will have to update the composite layer. Another way to do this is with nested Smart Objects if you need to change them layer.
