I need help! I just got CS4, and have never used Photoshop before. I have some photomasks that I have downloaded, as well as a tutorial on how to use them. I cannot figure it out, though. I can add a layer, but can't figure out how to add one using another image (the mask). Anytime I open another image, it does so in another window. My tutorial says to 'drag the mask on as another layer', but when I drag the mask onto the screen, it opens it as a separate project on another tab. I'm sure there's an obvious step somewhere that I'm somehow missing, but darn if I can figure out what it is...I would love it if someone could enlighten me!

Thanks.
