+				<p>Now lock and hide "black-layer" and work on “red-layer” and do the opposite: use the above procedure to remove the <em>black</em> lines. Alternatively, if this is difficult, use the select color function on the red lines again and copy and paste these to a new layer, which you can name “red-copy-layer”, then delete “red-layer”.</p>
 				<p>Tip: it’s a really good idea to retain some “anchor points” at the corners of your image, the same location in each layer, so that when you vectorize, each vector will be of the same outside dimensions. The four corners of a map would be good for this. After tracing, we can remove these anchors from the red layer.</p>
