    I'm tearing my hair trying to figure out how to select one of these bottles.

    Right! This setting was set to Subtract Front. It should have been set to Combine Shapes on the dropdown. To correct this result all one has to do is change the setting after the transparent one is shown.

    I'm tearing my hair trying to figure out how to select one of these bottles.

    You have to paint IN the mask with black to remove pixels, paint white to recover them. The mask should be white when first applied. Painting with white in this mask at this point will have no effect.

    I'm tearing my hair trying to figure out how to select one of these bottles.

    Try making a rough selection, enter Ctrl J to put it on a layer, then add a layer mask. Then with your paint brush at black, paint away the excess around the bottle. You can add back as needed by switching to white for paint. Gosh, I don't know how your going to get a lot better than what you...

    Drawing Tablet - Advice please

    I can add to this that I bought a Turcom tablet which is made by Huion. I had problems with the driver which was the Huion driver. Worked sometimes, sometimes not.

    Photoshop DPI question

    One could make a good case here for use of vector images. It just doesn't seem practical to create output for a huge sign as a bitmap image but I suppose one has to do what fits the situation.

    Bathroom Photoshop Colour Correction Help and Suggestions

    I would use a curves adjustment layer in PS. I don't have elements so your on your own there. But I think curves before anything else. Sit the images side by side in the window and work from there. I used little more than the eyedroppers to identify the whites,midtones and shadows to get this...

    Metadata

    I don't believe metadata is available for images that are other than the originals. At least looking at images in Bridge that's the way it appears to me.

    Adjustment Layers

    Couple of different ways. Easiest for me would be to add a Color Fill Layer . Layer/New Fill Layer/Solid Color. Pick the magenta color from the color picker. Then when you apply it, everything will be magenta. Now, click in the mask to select it and enter Ctrl i (eye) which will invert the...
