Hello, I'm new to challenges and posting, I'm a regular visitor of the site, but now I would like to post an entry to the Backlighting Challenge, It's under the basic editing, my question would be:
I have an image with some levels and curves adjustment layers, I've flattened the image and (here's the deal) I'd like to apply the "Black and White" adjustment of PS CS3 and then use the "Fade" command in the "Hard Light" blend mode, is this legal? Thank you for your answers.
I think I was not very clear, I will not create an adjustment layer and change the blend mode, Instead I'll be clicking on Image/Adjustments/Black and White, and then Edit/Fade... and selecting "hard light" from the drop down menu, then OK. I would not make use of an adjustment layer, but instead two commands.
From what I read in the Rules there's nothing aginst it, but I'm new at this anyway, thankyou very much.
Nope, in basic editing you can only use adjustment layers, and blend them only in "normal" mode. You can use fade, but again, only in "normal" mode. "Hard light" is definitely not basic editing.
