    I am trying to get the effect of a light sourse shinning through from behiend a layer. I have a picture that is sliced into puzzle shapped pieces… The puzzle pieces are going to fade in and out… when they are out i want it to look as though there is light shinning through from behiend the missing piece. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
