Help Me!!!!

I'm trying to figure out layers. I want to be able to place objects into the background so that they look natural. One thing I am working on is a chain-link fence. I have a person. I want to put the person behind the fence. I know I have to do something with layers and a layer mask to do this --- BUT WHAT?? :( :( :(

This is aggravating me, layers are one of few things holding me back from doing well in Photoshop right now!

Well Howdy.

We're gonna get gold in the Olympics hockey tournament.
That is sweden !!

Now to your problem...You have to learn 'bout layers and masks. Read the hlp file and search the Google for "working with layers in Photoshop".

It'll end up being one of your best friends on the web

Here's a couple of links I frequently visit.

The Photoshop Guru's Handbook
DeepSpace
Designs By Mark
Hands on Training

and of course, The Adobe site where you can find this:
All about Photoshop

Good luck.
