SUMMARY

-Make sure your mask layer is selection to paint on it, NOT THE ACTUAL PICTURE!

-The chain link represents merging the two layers. (becomes one)

- If you want to fade something, use a SOFT brush and low opacity

-If you want to mask out something, use a HARD brush and high opacity.

- To change the opacity, hit the numbers (ex. 4 for 40%, 3 for 30%)
