Tumbled Logic

adobegripes:

Photoshop: The order of the layer effects don’t match the true compositing order, BradEllis has provided us with a handy diagram explaining the confusion. Why can’t we reorder the compositing order? Why can’t we stack effects? Why isn’t Gaussian Blur a layer effect considering its the most used filter ever and Smart Objects is a clunky hacky solution.

This drives me insane on a regular basis, especially the fact that you can’t re-order effects (nor apply effects to groups without messing around with Smart Objects). And why the hell does it call them “Blending Modes” in some places and “Effects” in others? Huh? Huh?!
