I downloaded a free trial copy of Photoshop Elements a couple of days ago. I'm pretty happy with it, and I see where it has more potential than other things I've used.

However, I'm a little confused about layers, adjusting layers, and masks, and how these three things relate to each other. When would you use a layer vs. an adjusting layer? Do masks apply to both layers and adjusting layers?

The help within PS Elements is very vague, or at least I haven't been able to find clear answers to these questions.

Thanks in advance! :)
