I like that you quickly and briefly explain different keyboard shortcuts without going off topic. And thank you, because I had no idea about clipping layers. I've been doing things like that the hard, complicated way all this time. That simple feature is going to save me a lot of time.

    Thank you so fricking much! I am used to older photoshop where Select and Mask wasn't a thing, and from what I remember it would automatically make very sharp edges. And I couldn't figure out for the life of me how to get sharper edges at all. I've been editing pokeballs for days now, and always there would be this little bit of red at the top and white at the bottom coming through the pattern I put over it. And then I came across this video. Now I know how to make those blurred edges sharp so I get no weird color bleeding! Kina sad that I now know how to get it perfect so I want to go back and redo them all, but I think it will be worth it in the end. Thanks a bunch!

So ones the smoothing has been completed I want to get back to the original selection which I can the use dragging into a new background image. Your video was so easily to follow but maybe completing this bit will help others who struggle with the creative side of photoshop.
