Lesson Discussion

  1. Matt

    I am not well versed on photoshop. In the video you said we have the background layer. This layer has everything in it. What happened to the other layers that you were working on in the video before this one? I assume that you some how grouped them all together?

    • Hi Timothy,

      You can do this in two ways. One, you can flatten the image which means combining all of the layers into one. To do this, right-click on a layer in the layer palette and choose “flatten image”. Another way to do this is to right-click on a layer in the layer palette and choose “merge visible”. This will merge all of the visible layers into one. I hope this helps.
