Oh yeah, couple of things I forgot to mention. :oops:
1) No matter what type of image file you start with, when you drag the cutout plane on to the new transparent layer, the new layer with the plane on it automatically becomes a .psd file.
2) When you drag the cutout plane on to a new background, the background image too automatically becomes a .psd file.
3) What you end up with is two .psd "Layers" which can be manipulated independently of each other. So, for example, you can drag the plane layer around where ever you want! You can "Rotate" the plane if you want to. You can apply a "Filter" to the background layer without affecting the plane layer.
4) You can have as many layers as you'd like :!:
5) When you are all done working with layers and the image is finished, simply "Flatten" the "Layers" and make the image any type of file you wish, like .jpg, for example. :wink:
Just remember that once you "Flatten" the layers, the layers don't exist any more. So, be sure that you're done first AND save the last version composed of layers :!:
