EPTDid you know, I've fallen through the ground in Mario. Just walking along and boom I fall through the ground to my demise. Software does inexplicable shit when I'm using it.
Software hates me

Sometimes, the actual tools in Photoshop make this an easier task, but for trickier images, this is one of the only real solutions I know of. Time-consuming but there's not much else you can do. | ||

That was the first thing I tried == Btw this image is kind of ridiculous. It blends in on the edges so well with massive reflections that I have a hard time telling where the background starts when im zoomed in a bit lol. | ||

Make suer you don't accidentally do things you didnt' want to do through accidentally pressing hotkeys. Toggling something can screw things up. Yea I'm not sure why my eraser wasn't the default eraser. I'm assuming there is a hotkey that is very easy to press without knowing it? | ||

E selects the eraser, shift+E cycles to the next version of eraser. (The same is true for all the other brush selection hotkeys). For the longest time I couldn't figure out why sometimes Photoshop would stop responding to my commands, and then I realized I had accidentally been hitting Q and switching into quick mask mode... | ||

I know that insert in word is supposed to turn on the overtype mode. A lot of international keyboards have a short option that causes them to go to international mode. I'm sure it's useful for people who need the advanced features, but it does mess with the average user quite a bit. | ||
