    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, Scott! I think I finally understand how to use the Textures properly! And so much easier than what I was trying to do! Opacity & Blending – who knew?!

      You’re very welcome, Kathy. Glad I could demystify textures for you. I hope you’ll take advantage of the deal on the Pro Landscapes kit when it arrives. There’s some other juicy tips in the rest of the textures course, too. (Of course, I might be just a *little* biased. 🙂

    Thank you so much Scott, your tutorial really open up my understanding on using textures effects. I think the steps are very clear for me. Now I’ll apply the technique on some of my photos. Great tutorials.

    Your timing was most excellent; I need to use some textures on some of my — let’s say — less exciting flower shots. I am in hopes a background texture might make then at least a “little” more interesting!

    I was wrong the background music was from an app that was suppose to be closed. I replayed the video and could now hear everything fine. Scott, please accept my apology for assuming that you had background music, you didn’t.

    I have asked before somewhere and made a suggestion about being able to erase the effect but leave the color as changed by the texture.
