PHOTOSHOP HELP!!!!!!!!!!

There's some setting I have that I can't figure out how to turn off in Photoshop. And I know it can be turned off because it wasn't always there. Anyway, whenever I create a new image, in the upper left corner are 2 small icons in gray boxes. One says "01" and the other looks like mountains or something. Anyone know what these are and how I can get them to go away? It's really annoying when I'm making icons that are only 100x100 and I can't see that corner. Help!!! Thank you! :-D

ETA: My fiance is a GENIUS!! It's gone. Yay!!!!!!!!!!!1

I knew, and I was going to be all brilliant about it, but then got trumped by your fiancé.

Sorry. :-( BTW, have I ever mentioned how much I LURVE your Ryan Reynolds icons? I have had a crush on him since his X-Files debut oh those many years ago. The movie I want to make has him as the star, even! :-)

S'ok. :) I was being silly with the wibbles. I remember being so happy when I found out how to get rid of that.

Please feel free to use the Ryan icon if you'd like. He was so buffed in Blade III wasn't he? ::swoon::

So ahhh... just in case I ever come across such a nasty thing... how DO you get rid of it (or get it in the first place)?

Ryan Reynolds. *sigh* "Amityville Horror". Oh my guh! I had a real hard time being scared when that boy was runnin' around half nekkid. *G*

"The little boxes little flags telling you that you have activated the Slice tool. Typically, the Slice tool is used when creating artwork for use on a website where you want part of a picture to become a hyperlink on the website. There are, of course, other uses for the tool. To get rid of it, go to View>Show> Slices and toggle uncheck it. (#2) Photoshop is filled with tons of keyboard shortcuts. If you get sloppy about punching keys on the keyboard you’ll have all sorts of goofy things popping up."

That's how I got it, I think, beign sloppy about punching keys. One time it wasn't there, then it was.

Ah. Gottcha. Thanks very much for the info. LOL@"The Tick" icon.

Note to self: Remember to remove boxing gloves before punching keys in Photoshop. :P (*giggle* Very punny. I know. *snort*)
