How are you doing it?
If I understand correctly, you can use shadows/highlights, and you can select and dodge or select and use levels. (those are the ways I can think of, of hand. And I believe they're all legal) |

Adobe's Shadow/Highlight is legal in all rulesets except Minimal.
Scalvert even says so.
Edit to add: Nice, I pulled up a thread from 2004... It's still legal though!

In advanced, yes. As an alternative (a superior one) create a new layer, set layer mode to "overlay" and "fill with overlay-neutral color (gray)", then paint on that layer with black to burn and white to dodge; this is reversible and fadable at will, which direct dodge/burn is not.
