okay, so when one layer is grouped with another one, you can only paint over the non transparent part?

Great, that helps a lot! Thanks, I've been needing a tutorial like this

No problem. Oh, for later versions after PS7(all the CS1-4) I think the shortcut for grouping is CTRL+ALT+G rather than CTRL+G

Would this tutorial work on a different program other than PS? Such as...Gimp? I've always wanted to learn how to use layers but I don't use PS (too poor to get one) so I don't know if it applies to the one I use. D:

Some of the icons and abilities might be a different. I haven't really worked with GIMP. But basic layer-format is always bottom-goes-under-the-top.

Congratulations for creating such a "friendly" tutorial.
You explained the layers basics in a way that is easy to grasp, I really wish I had come across such a tutorial when I first started using photoshop!

Yeah...layers were something I found quite difficult to understand, and a few other people I know have the same difficulty. I wish there was a tut like this around when I started too.

Most of the things should work the same.

XD I didn't know about the grouping layers thing, I had a look through CS2 as it operates a little differently and finally found the same thing in layer=>add clipping mask
I think I'll be using that a lot X3
