5. LAYERS
• Layers are a very important part of graphics work. A photoshop image
file (.psd) can be made up of numerous independent layers which are
overlaid on top of each other.
• The main thing to note about layers is that each layer can be edited
without affecting any other layer.

7. ADVANTAGES OF WORKING WITH LAYERS
• You can separate parts of the image and edit them without affecting
other parts of the image.
• You can use layers as guides or reference without including them in
the final image (just make them transparent before saving the image).
• You can safely import new images to add to the composition. Move
the new image around, resize it and do whatever you like without
damaging the original image.

8. ADVANTAGES OF WORKING WITH LAYERS
• You can create multiple versions of a layer and experiment with
different effects. You might like to keep an original image and make a
separate layer to work with, so you always have the original image
layer to fall back on.
• You can apply filters and effects to layers independently, e.g. drop-
shadow, colour adjustments, etc.
