Hi,
Say I’ve got a texture layer of scratches… it’s mostly black and white… and I want this layer to act as a mask on a font layer… so that the scratches on the font make it transparent… how do I do this?
It would be easy if I could "paste" the layer with the scratches onto the font layer’s masking layer… but alas, I can. Closest thing I can do is use the magic want to select some scratches, then cut those out of the font layer’s mask layer with a simple DEL. But that takes all the subtleties of the texture away.
The layer with the scratches is partially transparent. I want those qualities in the mask I want applied on the font.
How?
