      I have a pretty specific need to separate line art from the paper, and the most direct an comprehensive approach I found was this one: ua-cam.com/video/LMV1NlM-ww8/v-deo.html
      It starts at about 2:00, but when she starts, her default is a White background and her art opens as Layer 1.
      When I try to work with an opened project, PS always turns my image into "Background" which creates problems a few steps later.
      Could you tell me what I'm doing wrong? Is there a settings I'm missing?
      Thank-you.

    Finally, a 'beginner' video that actually addresses the basics that are necessary to understanding. I am so glad I found this tutorial. This is exactly what I needed to see so I can quickly learn some photoshop basics to then teach a class how to create a Hybrid Self Portrait. I am excited to do this!

    Thanks for going slowly and quietly. I'm like others here, old school. I love photography and realize I need to learn this stuff. So many UA-cam videos out there go so fast and they assume you know things you don't know, and it's extremely frustrating. I'm going to watch this again, and try it out on my photoshop. Will be looking at more of your videos!

    Thanks so much for this. I’ve began watching loads of “beginner” videos but they fail to explain so many important things that beginners want to know defeating the whole purpose of creating the video. This explains it so well for people like myself with zero experience using Photoshop. 💛
