its just always shuffling layers around takes up time and a bit of a hassle aswell if I need to do 20 or so in a minute.

also how would I add a border to a masked image?say I cut a star shape of an image and I wanted a white border thats feathered?

crap.... as for your border,

you can duplicate the track, and change the brightness to all the way up to make it white, and place it under the original track

So I want Sora's face to be rescaled smaller,still with the same part(no masked out parts or cropped off bits)fitted into the parallelogram(the coloured part-I just want that shape but with all of sora's face instead of only a part)

I know I'm confusing so if your puzzled by what I'm asking,please ask me so I can help you help me solve my problem :)

uh im not sure what you are looking to do... but what is the problem? is it the borders? or is it the fact you don't know how to pan out the clip? or what?
