Wow, thank you Mary. Such appreciative comments make it entirely worthwhile spending some time doing these tutorials. Knowing they are helpful to people is the most important thing and I will happily make more. I'll do more with layers but are there any other Photoshop tutorials you or others would like? I am always open to ideas.
As you said Mary, some people are a bit shy asking for help but if I know what people want help with, it makes it easier to get on and do them. There should be absolutely no embarrassment whatsoever in asking for a bit of help, it is what we all need from time to time. I can assure you I need help in some areas too and always feel happy asking other Pixalo members if they can help. What goes around comes around: I give help to someone, they give help to someone else and so on it goes and someone else will give help to me.
That is the beauty of Pixalo
Thanks again,
Rob
