    can't use Brightness/contrast in layers

    Brightness/contrast only seems to have an effect on the 'background' layer--not on any subsequent layers I apply. And it only seems to be on the current docs that I am using--if I open some older ps docs from the recent past, brightness/contrast works fine on all layers...?

    Gif file looks fine in PS, but when I play it after its saved, the hidden layers show

    This is pretty irritating. Like i said, the gif file when played back in PS itself looks perfect as I want it. Then when i save it, all the layers that i designate to be hidden just stay on screen after their frame plays. Am i somehow saving it the wrong way or what?

    Baking Adjustment Layer to all layers in group?

    Hi I have 20+ layers that all need the same levels adjustment, so I put them in a group, and applied a Levels Adjustment Layer to the group. Is there a way to bake that adjustment in to every individual layer, while retaining them as separate layers? Thanks Steve

    How can I fade a layer's edge?

    How can I fade/erase the edge of a layer so that it blends in when placed on top of another layer? I know I could do this manually with the eraser tool, but the edges of this particular layer are very detailed. Thanks in advance.
