That's what the old folks called their laying hens. The ones that produced eggs.

Heh... once in a while, i may name, or group some layers, I think maybe i did a couple on this project, but, for the most part, I find naming, grouping, takes more time than I spend finding the layers by memory.... I'm not naming 250+ layers 
so, to that end, that's my illogical logic (See Fuzzeh)
Here's my method... and.. this may or may not help folks..
1. If i want to access a layer.. I..... click on it ! 
, yes, I know its profound, but that's my science.
2. If a layer I want, is under another layer.. I just click on the upper layer, then travel down thru the layers palette until I find it.
3. I typically.. just remember, after working on something, where layers are, in the layers palette. sort of memorization thru attrition.
4. Photoshop does not install this at default but ALWAYS ALWAYS make sure that when u have the move tool (black arrow) selected, that in the options bar above you have 'Show bounding box" \ "show transform controls" checked (depending on ur PS version) Secondly make sure you have " Auto select" checked as well.
without these being checked... I'd be lost too.
Just a couple of tips from an old and weary skinner.
Off to bed... thanks folks.

supersweet i asked you if there will be an antrazite version : why did i even ask just had a look at saturation turned it down a bit and there i was - why did i even doubt that it would work 
NOW i want the final product

This will kill ya, John.
Screeny of the layers in a typical psd for me:
Each group has sub groups so I can easily hide and show different layers separately. Ask Jim or Cyndie.....I'm simply anal about these

Don't get me wrong, If i do a freelance job, or something someone else is paying me, regarding a PSD, my Layer palette is extremely organized.. but if its just me... I work faster without doing all that.

I went through the psd and let me tell ya ... I am very impressed. All the subtle variations. Right down to the dig marks. Amazing! That's got to take a shitload of time and patience. With a start menu like this I can just imagine the rest of the WB. Freakin' awesomeness!!!

This skin is terrific!...right up my alley,...if my alley were classier,and in a better neighborhood. Couldnt have done it better John. 
That's why I have been naming all my layers, makes them easier to find, lol.Reply #113 Thursday, December 15, 2011 8:52 PM

Wow, This went from amazing to perfect. I am seriously looking forward to seeing the final product. This is great work John as expected from a master skinner . I like the tint you added to it too gives it more depth.
