    if ur trying to cut out something to make transparent, copy ur pic, fill the first layer with black or any color, then return to 2nd one and cut the render out and then delete the 1st layer thats filled with any color

    Dont set it to overlay!!!!

    just leave it in the normal mode ;)

    At the end you should have two files...

    1. With the original image

    2. With the shape of the original image but then turned black..


    Simple as that ;)

    Possibly mean how to make a drop shadow support for when you make a logo into a Cool 3D animated image. Sometimes in ImageReady, you either have to make the animated image drop shadow'd before hand, else you'll have to add a shadow to each tween/frame/layer with each animation, which ends up into a large file. In Cool 3D, it somewhat does it for you. That's my guess about the Normal 100% Black quotation in the tut.
