Adjustment layers, masks, and basic editing.

Since I just learned last night that you could use masks on adjustment layers (thank you, Gordon!), now I am (besides feeling pretty stupid for not having figured this out before) wondering if masks with adjustment layers are allowed in basic editing.

I re-read the basic rules just a moment ago, and didn't come to an answer.

My understanding is that using a mask is really the same thing as making a selection. Thus, it's a no-go in basic.

"Changeover" folk?

People that have been shoehorned into Photoshop ?

Whatever you mean by that? I just know that Ursula used PSP for a long time, that's all. :)
