You don't get to see a lot of layer management especially on speed paintings, so this it very helpful. Thank you.

Can you make a time management one too maybe describing how to have a personal life, while going to art school, while doing hw, while trying to do personal work and managing a YouTube acc?

Thank you so much for this. You have actually just improved my overall life quality with these tips.

Excellent that you covered this!! Overlooked so often and super important! I've learned a lot from watching your videos, especially Flash animation. Thanks for all the great content!

[zoomer-express]

Exactly how I thought it would be like, really useful for people who don't know.

Ctr+Alt+Shift+e  Keyboard command for photoshop will merge all visible layers into a new top-most layer, kind of a shorthand method of your duplicate an merge advice. thanks for the tutorials jazza!

[iamgavcarter]

Dude your art is incredible and inspiring! Respect!

[MyRainbowangel]

Absolutely fantabulous, this is so helpful as I am always misplacing my files so just ended up with one large file that takes me ages to search. So onto this now cheers. Have you any organisational ideas for my sketches and sketchbooks Thank you for sharing

I was just getting frustrated about where to find specific file and I couldn't find it but now I am going to try you way. :-)

[Aronmasonarts]

Ill take this as fates way of telling me to get the job done Ive been putting off, cheers jazza

[MyLittleMagneton]

It's all about finding the right balance of organization. Believe me, overdoing it is just as frustrating.

[catiedubya]

Jazza, I was wondering if you could do a video on networking? I'm trying to get myself known in the internetworld (I have accounts on Newgrounds, Tumblr, DevArt, and some other places) and I was wondering if you could tell us the best ways to get noticed? It's hard as someone just starting to post their work publicly and get some sort of a following, and I was wondering how you go about it, and how you started out. Please and thank you!

I used to be terrible with file structure. I used to store my files in the most random places without creating many folders (if any), but I've learned the importance of organization, and I'm not as bad as I used to be :)

[ProTitaniumAnims]

This is perfect. I had the some problem right how as a matter of fact. Thank you!

[sherrilynnhill]

This was very helpful. Thanks for sharing

[faithfulimagination]
