Turn Background into a Layer

When you open an image (or a photo) in Photoshop it is important that you turn it into a Layer first before doing anything on it. Firstly, you cannot do a lot of things on it if it is not a Layer. Kapag nagbukas ka ng larawan sa Photoshop, mahalaga na gawin mo s'yang Layer muna bago mo i-edit. Kasi unang-una wala kang maraming magagawa sa picture pag hindi s'ya Layer. Whenever you open a photo in Photoshop, you’ll notice that the photo you have just opened is labeled as Background. Mapapansin mo na tuwing magbubukas ka ng picture sa Photoshop, automatic Background 'yun. Even you want to use it really as a background, it is recommended to turn it into a Layer. So that you will have a full control on it. Kahit na talagang pang-background lang ang purpose mo sa picture, mas iminumungkahi pa rin na gawin mo itong Layer para mas kontrolado mo. To make it a layer, just double-click it. I-double click mo lang ito para maging Layer. Click OK. Now you'll see that it has turned into a Layer. Pagkatapos mo ma-click ang OK makikita mo na naging Layer na. There are many tools that are deactivated (tools that you cannot use) if it remains a Background. Maraming tools na hindi mo magagamit kapag naka-Background ang image mo. You will find out of the enormous advantage of turning it into a Layer as you continue learning Photoshop. Sa pagpapatuloy mo ng pag-aaral ng Photoshop, makikita mo ang napakalaking bentahe kapag Layer ang picture. If you have question or need clarification, please write it down in the comments space.
