Comment by Panda Ritchie on March 6, 2010 at 12:26am: Not sure what I'm doing wrong - but I follow all the steps till it gets to the point where you convert the background to a layer and then delete the selection - the image left behind on mine looks like a ghost at about 20% opacity? BUt the layer shows 100% opacity? Very weird...? Can't understand where I'm going wrong. I tried to tick the box that says copy as a clipping mask when double clicking the background layer but it was greyed out...any suggestions?
