Don't flatten the image...

If the two layers have the same setting...i.e. multiply, overlay, normal, etc... you make one the active layer, then link the second...and then "merge linked"...

This won't work however, if they have different settings. It will make them have the same setting when merged...so when they are different....i.e., overlay over normal, multiply over normal, I turn all layers off except those two, so they are the only two you can see....then "merge visible. This way will make them look the same way they were without changing the appearance.

You could do it the second way for each, but its quicker to do the top's way.

Hope this helps,

BTW, I never flatten my images, just incase there is a mistake I notice later after I save, I can go back and easily fix it...otherwise it could be much harder to fix if they are flattened. JMO

Yup..use CTRL+SHIFT+E. I find it's the easiest. Command Shift E if you're on a MAC :unsure:
