Photoshop question

guiggster

I'm drawing basic planar layers over a photgraph. What I want to know is how do I punch holes in layers? I can't seem to figure this out for the life of me. Essentially, can I have a planar layer with windows? Or is there an easier way to do this?

try windowing the area that you want to punch a hole in using any of the marquee tools and pressing the 'delete' button. that should do it.

Or you could just use livetrace with Illustrator CS2 - and save the time.

Flash also has a nice feature called trace bitmap and you can manually set the tolerance.
