BleepingComputer.com: Help With Photoshop

Hey guys,

Im actually trying to make a banner for a site and tried to follow this tutorial. But i'm having trouble to cut the things out of the banner.

Here is the tutorial: http://www.pegaweb.com/tutorials/web...e-header-2.htm

I'm having trouble at instruction number 11. I can't seem to understand the instruction which leads to having the fonts on the shadow. I don't understand how to delete those unwanted parts.

Then the same problem comes at number 16. Here again, i can't get the layer to suit the curve of the previous layer.

Any help is much appreciated.

ummm i think that link is broken or something it wouldn't work for me anyway

Hmm, that's funny. Whe i tried the link it didn't work too. So i go to the main site, and i could find the tutorial again.

Anywa, here's the link again website banner

after a while, i think i found the problem.
First, when it says about getting rid of the letters, you could go to the layer with the gradient, edit->reselect, then invert selection. This is to get the area where you want letters.
Then, select the layer with the letters (already rasterized so it can be edited) and get rid of the part of the letters that you don't need (with the selection from the other layer). You may have to select the layers holding down ctrl (to select the newly rasterized layer and deselect the gradient one).
Then, simply erase what is in the selection with the eraser, and you should have your watermarks done.

I hope this helps.
