    This is bizarre. Safari on my Mac will not display the flash tutorials on planetphotoshop or layersmagazine. Yet it works with Youtube and passes the Adobe Flash test page. This has happened within the last week.

    Nice tutorial but, the process that is shown for making the displacement map doesn’t work. I had to make my displacement map using an alpha channel but, the results worked out great. Keep them coming, I love watching your tutorials.

    Thanks
