      Awesome!!! Thank you so much for the input. I am so glad that people comment and let me know these things. I normally have a hard time finding stuff to say, so I don’t even know how to respond normally. I mean, if I had the right words, I would respond with an appropriate response, but I’ll just try my best. I appreciate you watching and absorbing the content! It’s always a pleasure to hear from viewers that watch! I’m thankful for viewers like you. Hopefully you will continue to watch the videos in the future. I’m sure that I’ll have some shorter videos that are more suited for you. Thanks again…just wish I had the right words to express my appreciation.

    Your tutorials are better and clear, your tool bar is larger -- making tools easier to find. Also your voice is friendly. The majority of tutorials are given by foreigners who haven't completely mastered English. ( Kudos for their efforts, they are trying) but learning must be understandable to be learned.

    • @malonecustomdesigns
      @malonecustomdesigns  Před 3 lety

      Sorry, I just now saw this. Here is what you should do. Draw your line(s) in black. Create a color-filled adjustment layer above the layer of your lines. Then hold down the Alt key and click on the layers palette right between those two layers. This creates a clipping mask. Now that color layer should only be on your lines. Double click on the color and change it to any color you want. To learn more, look up clipping mask or here is a video where I talk about it. czcams.com/video/t7qkHvtp0os/video.html
