And also, i would like to point out, for the reflection, that i had to paint brush that in, was there any other way i could have acheived the same look, only easier? Thanks 🙂 ---

It’s a photoshop style, you don’t open it, you drop it into the photoshop style folder and open the style in photoshop. ---
