Smart Objects was something not many have explained well but the Potato and Bag actually worked very well (its probably just me being rather slow to understand).

    I really enjoyed this! I started a new job recently and found that I'd be using PS a lot more than I had in the recent past. My last job was 90% ID so I'd forgotten a lot of the advanced PS stuff. WELP....I never fully learned and understood smart objects. The projects I'm working on at work have a lot of them and when I can't visualize how something works it COMPLETELY confuses me and then I start to doubt myself as a designer. Breaking down the lesson to a friggin potato and a bag REALLY made me "SEE IT!" Sometimes you just gotta "dumb things down" and break it down so it doesn't seem so overwhelming to help someone get out of their head. Thanks for that! :) I'll save this lesson for sure and check out all of your other ones. Followed and subscribed! THANKS AGAIN!
