I have watched 2 videos on the paint splatter effect on a photo.  When I select the texture/grunge, I am advised to click and drag on the layer, but mine is only putting a selection on, no splatter.  Can you advise what I am doing wrong please.

Welcome to the forum @kathypeterson

Can you add links to the two video’s.

It sounds like you have the...

  • Selection brush tool selected (W) selectionbrushtool_lightui.png.5d011f9a499930089db4b33fa5ea7db3.png 
  • and not the Brush tool (B) brushtool_lightui.png.1b0a2b955095d1407f3dbd7d0b255c4f.png

They are very similar in look. The letters denote the keystroke to select them and both letters are toggle switches so pressing them repeatedly will select different tools, just look at the toolbar on the left to check which brush is active.
