so why is the fade USM illegal in basic if it doesnt load a new layer? or does it do it automatically?

Fading the filter is Basic-legal if done in Normal Mode -- the previous question concerned using other (Lighten/Darken) blending modes.

yeah, but the basic rules say nothing about fade or blending, only when doing a layer adjustment?

I was wondering how you do the Fade. I only have PS Elements. Not sure they have that. Perhaps you can share where it is in your program?

I came back wondering if my taste for photo is better or not... And looks like my skills to judge photos is better, since on Action challenge all my votes got on respective good or bad edges, according to the challenge classification...

But looks that my photos are always stuck on 5.x area, with lots of 4's and 5's and some 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

It looks like I keep sharpening too much my photos, as per the comments that I usually receive...

Does anybody know some good articles where I can find better techiniques to sharpen the images? (despite of the this site's tutorial that I've already read)

Thanks!
