Any pixels on the Layer Mask are the same thing as a "selection" and so are not legal in Basic. Sorry. |

You can use any of the adjustment layers, but nooo layer masks fo them. The mask should be totally white.

From the rules:
# Spot-Editing: Absolutely no spot-editing is allowed. This includes, but is not limited to drawing tools, dodging/burning tools, and cloning tools. Additionally, the use of any type of selection tool is prohibited except to select a non-feathered, non-anti-aliased rectangular area for cropping.

CURSES! Ok. I'm leaving my submission as is then. Been a while since I entered an open challenge in addition to one that required some editing.
Thanks for the quick responses cool cats!

The purpose in Basic is to edit non-destructively -- you can go back and change the adjustment later. For example, I often use an Adjustment Layer with Curves, on RGB. I'll then make a second AL for a Curve restricted to the Blue/Yellow Channel. After doing that, I might want to go back and tweak the RGB Curve.
Also, with an AL, you can change the opacity of the effect, which is similar to applying the "Fade" effect, but again is non-destructive, and can be changed/undone up until the time you save a flattened image in TIFF or JPEG format ...
