Question by Alicia: How to color behind the black lines in adobe photoshop elements 9?
I have adobe photoshop elements 9 and I want to color in a hand drawn picture on my computer but in all the tutorials I’ve watched they have always colored behind the lines of the actual picture. I can’t figure out how to do this on my version of photoshop so if anyone knows how to, please tell me. It would be a big help and I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I use GIMP, but Photoshop has the same features. Put a new layer over the hand-drawn picture and set it to multiply. Color on that layer and it should go over the original hand-drawn layer while remaining behind the black lines.

You need to use layers.
Use your line drawing as a separate layer and change it’s setting to ”Multiply”. You’ll see at the top of the layers toolbox, it defaults at ”Normal” click the drop down arrow, and you’ll find ”Multiply”
Then add a new layer to add your colours. Your black lines will show through the colour and the white will become transparent.
