help with Adobe CS5

[BlueFlameWolf]

Iv had CS5 for a little while now, an theres still one thing i cant figure out how to do >:/ and thats coloring poses WITHOUT having to use a wand tool

in my old adobe (7.0) all you had to do was make a new layer, and group it, and you could just start coloring without the coloring going outside the pose..which most people use wand tools for

this was a life saver for those poses that have soft pixel outlines (kesame poses for example) a wand tool was almost impossible for them....

Now that im using adobe cs5, iv been trying to figure out how to do the same thing to save time, i HATE having to use the wand tool, but grouping the layers doesnt do the same thing as the other adobe...and iv tried nearly all the other tools i could think of...i know theres a way to do it though, i did it once by mistake an have been unable to do it again...

Never used CS5, but what you can do is duplicate the layer of the pose, lock the top layer, and color over it then set ti to multiply.

I think most Photoshops are like each other in a way? That's so weird that it wont let you group D:
Has CTRL + G worked when you tried? Because on my Photoshop it doesn't give you the option to group either, but when you hit ctrl and g at the same time on that layer it automatically groups it.
