Hi everyone,

Whenever I try and select and mask I always end up with super muddy lines not beautiful crisps one in the tutorials. Does anyone else have this problem?
 
Have you tried selecting the second tool down. The refine edge tool then playing with the contrast slider and the feather tool. I find it great for detailed selections but rubbish for square edges and less complex selections. I usually do the selections to a layer with mask then nip and tuck with pen tool.

Do a search for Terry white select and mask. This guy is adobe's creative guy and is fantastic.
 
Thanks Andy I'll take a look.
 
Yes there is extremely complex adjustments you can do with it. Need a degree to use photoshop, nightmarishly difficult
 
It's funny that for say Scott Kelby it works perfectly everytime but for the lay person it's a nightmare!
