   I’ve done this a number of times, but I’ve never used a blank layer. I usually use a duplicate layer and then adjust the opacity to refine the process. I think I’m taking less steps, but there might be some cases were going to blank layer direction might have some advantages.

   Thank you for having this video. It was explained in detail.

   Would you be able to do another video on masking?

   Very nice video…aside from learning an excellent method to remove shine, I leaved something I did not know about the function of the darken and lighten blend modes.

   Thank You!

   Dave,

   Thanks for more great tips. It always amazes me how feature rich Elements is, and how folks like you keep bringing up techniques that I probably would not have discovered on my own.

   Thanks again.

   Dave

   There is an error in the cheat sheet that needs to be corrected. The phrase ” creat a black layer” should be “create a blank leyer” as Dave correctly says in the video.
