This poor guy takes the time to teach some interesting for photoshop that some people may not know, and people are bashing him for it?

You don't need to be exact, it's fun to just mess around with things and get creative. And the poor guy might not post more videos to help out if all he gets is crap. Some people must run angry all the time):

I enjoyed the video a lot, thank you for posting!

@LoveThatPhantom ***ATTENTION!*** To do the masking at 5:500 make sure you are NOT clicking on the words (layer 1, etc) and you only click on the little pictures when you hold alt and control :)

I learned a lot like about making the mask and other great tips and without the "wool" layer it looks pretty cool. I am using it as a background for a wallpaper I am making. Thanks so much.

lol i just do it like you explain it but i in the first steps when you create some kind of circle with the elliptical tool and then you clic on the forground color you choose then light blue to fill it right! i do just the same i create the ellips and i go to forground to choose light blue then i clic ok and the forground color becomes gray not light blue?
