avatar unkskittyI had trouble going from step 2 to step 3 without my path vanishing. You might want to mention that you should have shape layers on BEFORE drawing the path in step 2 so that when you go to edit the path it is still there! (Otherwise i it is just a work path.)

no avatarHello,
I am not sure what is happening when I go to complete step 5 but I only have half the shape. When I stretch the lines out they only extend half the shape
