PROGRAM BASIC: Understanding Layers in PSP
(Read the full article...)This tutorial is going to cover the very basics of layers in PSP. Layers are what make these more advanced programs more versatile but they are also a little overwhelming to the new user. If you can imagine starting a layout with a blank piece of paper, and working your way to a finished piece, you would be building it up layer by layer. When you open a paper in PSP, it will default to a Background layer. In order to make any changes to this layer, such as using the deform tool, you will need to change it to a Raster layer.
