Scott Coatsworth - Project 4

1. Which blend modes did you experiment with and then use in your project?
  Experimented with just about all of them, although I couldn't get a very exciting effect from most of them.  The overlay was useful in making an image "pop".  I also used the multiply blend mode to produce a kind of "chameleon" effect on an image.

2. How did you use the stacking order to produce your final results in your most
complex composite?
  There wasn't too much overlap in my images, but I did put a street above some dresses in order to make it show first in the foreground.

3. What layer effects did you use? Which layer styles did you apply to another
layer?
  I used bevel and emboss, outer glow, drop shadow, stroke, and satin overlay.  I found the outer glow and drop shadow to be helpful on most of my text to make it stand out.

4. What key elements of layer managements in this module that you plan to
use in future projects?
  Name your layers!  Group them!!

5. What challenges did you experience in the process?
  Most of the challenges came making the transparent images.  Selecting things can be quite tricky.

6. What keyboard shortcuts are you using regularly now?
  Holding the spacebar to move around an image when you are zoomed in.
