I hate when I do this. Un-Flatten???	Can't Post

Hi All,

I have a project that I accidentally flattened to one layer and saved out. It's still a .psd but I cannot figure out how to get all my layers(12) back.

Any tips?
Thanks,
James

If it was easy, everyone would be doing it

Erg. Next time, remember to "Save a Copy".

As soon as you shut down photoshop you lose your history cache. Make a practice to save several versions of a composition as your working on it- and only flatten it once it's ready for output.
