Removing the Vector Mask

If you find that you'd like to remove the Vector Mask from your image, just choose Layer > Delete Vector Mask, or drag its thumbnail to the trash can that appears at the bottom of the Layers palette. You can also convert a Vector Mask into a Layer Mask by choosing Layer > Rasterize > Vector Mask. But be aware that you'll lose the crisp-edged, smooth look of the path, and any transformations applied to the Layer Mask will cause it to appear blurry.
