Ok, bear with me here as I’m not entirely sure what I’m asking.

About a year ago, I did the CS2 trial, but sadly had to get rid of it when I couldn’t dish out almost $700 to buy it. Now that I finally have a full version though, I can’t figure out what I was using for a blending tool. I know it wasn’t this thing < http://img353.imageshack.us/img353/3426/theaboninationge4.pn g> or the layout style thing. I could easily play with the layers, and it had two windows I could change what blending technique I wanted (ie lighten, darken, etc) for each layer.

Also, although it was a touch annoying, white automatically became see through. I didn’t have to erase it or anything to make it go away, but now it doesn’t do that anymore.

Again, I’m sorry if this is confusing, but as I said, I’m not entirely sure what I was doing then and not doing now.

Thanks for the help!

Blending Options, perhaps? Right-click on a layer in the Layers palette; second from the top.

No, clicking that leads me to the Layer Stlye window again.
