Pho<strong>to</strong>Kit <strong>Color</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> layer groups<br />

Most of the Pho<strong>to</strong>Kit <strong>Color</strong> <strong>2.0</strong> effects add an open layer group, which can be seen in<br />

the Layers palette. This layer set is always be placed at the <strong>to</strong>p of the layer stack, above<br />

all other layers. This arrangement allows you the flexibility <strong>to</strong> refine each of the effects. If<br />

you click on the layer group, you can reduce the overall opacity of the effect.If you click<br />

on the individual layers within the layer group, you can increase or reduce the strength<br />

of each layer. So for example, when using the Classic Chrome Film Effects series you<br />

will see a Classic Chrome layer group which includes a <strong>Color</strong> layer and a Contrast layer<br />

above it. If you click on either of these layers you can control the layer opacity <strong>to</strong> make<br />

the <strong>Color</strong> layer or Contrast layer stronger or weaker.
