1. Re: Problem with Gradient Layer and second layer with opaque object
Noel Carboni Jan 4, 2011 2:00 PM (in response to sheana2002)I'd guess, without seeing your layers palette, that your sun image is partially transparent and as such some of the blue sky is mixing with it, yielding the green color you see.
It really boils down to what you want it to look like. If you're shooting for more or less a "child's" style drawing of a big yellow ball, make the brush you draw the sun with have a harder edge, and paint it in so that the central pixels are opaque. Make sure the sun's above other layers that could influence the result.
It might be good if you screen grabbed your layers palette and posted it.

2. Re: Problem with Gradient Layer and second layer with opaque object
sheana2002 Jan 4, 2011 2:19 PM (in response to Noel Carboni)I tried making another transparent layer, which I deleted, because
the blue tint still shows through the "sun". I have captured a
copy of the layers palette for you to see. I can't drag anything above the top layer, which is just a vector shape of a bird flying in the sky. See how the blue tint cuts off the top of the sun?

3. Re: Problem with Gradient Layer and second layer with opaque object
Noel Carboni Jan 4, 2011 2:24 PM (in response to sheana2002)It looks like your sun is below the sky layer.
You should be able to drag the sun layer above the sky layer, so that it will be entirely visible in front of it. And yes, you can drag things above the top layer if you want to, you just have to be careful about it and watch for the line above the top layer to darken before dropping.
