Hi,

I've been having a few problems with this Tutorial, it seems there are quite a few steps missing.

Now I think I've managed to figure out what the author did for one of the missing steps where they are using a Transparent Rainbow Gradient, but when they copy that layer (and their instructions for copying that layer didn't work, [ctrl+click] so I might not have got that right either) they say:

Now that bit about 'create oval selection and remove this area from shape':

(http://alfoart.com/strawberry_phone_2.html  it's on page 2) they don't explain how to do that, they just say 'do it'.

Can anyone tell me how I do that?

This oval selection appears to be just under the gradient overlay in the layers styles - but I can't see how to get the selection into that position either.

Can anyone help?
