Fill in Shapes ?!

[joshuakf]

I am using the Bloc Theme from YooThemes for my webpage (check it out at YooThemes for reference)

I'm looking to fill in 3 colors with three colors that I have designed myself - I'm a noob.

I used the eyedropper to pick up colors from other files and tried to fill the shapes. No matter what I've done - even using the pen tool to close in the shape the fill goes all over the whole page. Appreciate your help.

When I fill in the colors how can I also keep the 3-D effect?

You need to make a mask the size of the shape you are filling and set your blend mode to multiply and turn down the opacity to get the right color effect. Or you could desaturate the shape and use the color blend mode.
