Phototgraphe Demode: Anyway to do non destructive resizing of images? Real newby question, sorry...

Starchild91: What I do is that I just use lots of layers, and make one change in each layer.

TNHTechnology: baH baH BoObies!!

Harrypotter2schmi336: perv

Sylver Männik: 1:08 like stewie: ruind :D

knudronau: Ye i use that too

rheyden1: Neat!

willzurmacht: thanks!! love you man! xD

TheSuperSherman: can you give us the photos you use in the description?

QueenNyx: Wow. Wish I knew this for some of my class projects. It would have saved a lot of space since I dupe a lot of layers for every effect I do to save the previous.

Nick Silvestri: tip: don't just reply to the haters :)

Elder Nuñez: Shift + Alt + Click Between the Layers :D

Penwood2508: Yes -- apply the blur to the whole image (on a layer, of course), then add a mask and use a black and white gradient just on the layer mask.

strepie93: Your project could be rueened.

dima9944: Why should one use smart filters instead of creating a new layer? From what I understand it takes up the same space.

PoopingInTheBathtub: Mute it.:D

Piet Skøtt: Duplicate the original picture and use the copy for your project. To keep the original picture, just lock it and/or make it invisible in the bottom-right corner. :) Keep it simply :p

Obed Vetter: Fantastic information, thank you for posting this!

PossumCuber: I cried when you painted over her boobs.

PossumCuber: Chuck Norris can.

sehber: What about SmartObjects? :p

sludgedisciple: agreed, that tip alone is excellent!

mineofGod: I knew everything except that clipping trick! Thank you!

TalynCo: A tip: Duplicate important layers before you make major changes. : )
