if you mean the part @ 0:59 where I select all three shape layers I made- I simply hold in ctrl and click on the layers I want to use. rastertize layers, then merge layers. both actions are done by right clicking on one of the layers while all three are selected. hope this helps!

@taliandr BTW, what font r u using?

[taliandr]

yr ways r kinda complicated... u can select the "Rounded Rectangle Tool" and make a rounded rectangle like u did with da circles and squares. its way easier.

Nice DEMO, How did you erase the edges of black box so smooth? The Method 2 demo? I have a head that I want the top edges to became round only. How would you instruct me to do the Job? I will truely appreciate it.

I have spent many hours but couldn't find a way for it. Thanks
