Hi I'm new to photoshop and Photo plus.

I have just tried my first lesson and have become very frustrated. From Photo shop June 2010
Page 47 'sharpen your shots selectively'
.
The problem is I have CS and the lesson is for elements so I am trying to overcome the differences in the menue's.

I am guessing that enhance-adjust sharpness in elements= Filter-Sharpen- smart sharpenin CS as this gives the 'remove lens blur' option described.

I have followed the steps accurately, i thought however when I make a mask in step 7 the models face goes black in the areas I am going over with the brush. I am not getting a face 'mask' appear on the white mask in the layers area. I have selected the top layer as described. I have closed the project several times and started again, my daughter has tried it and I have tried both unmask sharp and smart sharpen.
Can anyone help.
Thanks
Pete
