Feather Blending Problem.

i was just looking at a few render blending tutorials and I'm having a bit of trouble blending my render with the feather+ magic wand method.

here are my steps:

CTRL+ click on render layer
Select Magic Wand Tool
Right Click -> Select Inverse
Click DEL

but nothing happens when i click DEL.

Is there anything I'm doing wrong?

 

Ctrl click the little square thing in the Layers Panel.

Go to Select/Feather and the put in how much you want to feather by.
Go to Select/Inverse.
Then just press delete.

Here's my rendering tut.

I show you how to feather at the end of it.

 

you can just take a soft brush and do it manully


i do that a lot

 

that works too

btw...r u trying to just feather a render to make it look smoother or r u blending a render into a sig?

 

well i was trying to blend the render into the BG. I remember being able to do it in my PS 7.0 But now i have CS2, so i figured maybe its becuase i set it up to 16bit.

Thanks for the help, its working again!
