Its used very popular and useful in photoshop. I think maybe you press "Ctrl+Shift+E", so all layers are merged and flattened. @Krizzle: thanks, im glad i can give something useful Link with http is no 0   Spam 15 semuel   (2010-08-24 4:36 PM) [Entry] Wow..nice tutorial really inspiring and helpfull, thanks a lot for that!
