   Nikki,

   Cool quicktip. You should do a quick tip on half-tones or creating a half tone pattern in photoshop. I’ve always had problems with that for some reason or another.

   An even faster way to mask is to hold the Option (ALT) key and click between the two layers. This will perform the exact same thing.

   Thanks for putting the time out to do these.

   Thank you! Great time saver, I had a much longer approach to that because I’ve never looked into clipping masks…
