I am thinking Elements 6 doesn't have "layer masks" you have to have the big dog to do that. What in particular are you trying to do? Maybe I can still help?

Hi Carin~yeh I think you are right. I thought I read somewhere that you could somehow do a layer mask in Elements too. I'm trying to take two photos and merge them together taking out the line where they connect. Thanks!

Thank you Cy! I thought there was something out there that I'd read that told how to do it in Elements, but I never could find it again. I'll have to go there tmo and play with it. Thanks so much!
