Photo cutout question
I am using the extractions with dimension tutorial with Cassie Jones, everything has been easy to follow along with until I got to the extracting part. I have done it over and over to see if I missed a step or did something wrong. When I have the cut out selected with the magnetic lasso and I have the marching ants, I invert it, then hit delete and I get a message, "the smart thumbnail is uneditable" I have no idea what I did or how to fix it. Any ideas?

Are you using PSE 6 or 7? I don't have those versions but I think it has to do with how you are bringing your image or elements into the project. You're dragging from the project bin? Try just going to each element/photo and duplicating the layers into the project. Please forgive me if I am wrong ;-) From what I understand, items become smart objects somehow... and it's been giving people grief. But there is a workaround. I;m sure someone will respond soon!

I followed the link above and I right clicked on the photo in the project bin and clicked simplify layer and it worked with no problem. Thank you again, I am new to this and am very thankful for the tutorials and this website.
