I've been playing around with photo composting in Designer Pro X and I've got to say the shapebuilder/eraser combo are darn handy for this! You can use the SB/E with a graphics tablet and pressure sensitivity turned on to create intricate masks on the mask layer, and to softly erase out bits of your composite pieces to blend them into a new background. In the composite below I used the SB/E to mask out areas for adjustment with the photo tool and I used the colour select erase to change the hue of the sky a bit. The eraser was very handy for blending the sailboat into the background (after I used the magic erase to remove the other boat!)

Has any one else tried using these tools for photo compositing? You are welcome to post your composites here, I'd love to see what others have done
