Hello, When using the puppet tool, my layers get tears in them. What am i doing wrong? Had this happen on pretty much every PSD file I try. Google search is of no help. I have tried this on multiple machines, and problem is consistent.
Here is a video clip showing the problem I am having - Youtube link:

Hi Tyson. Your mesh expansion and/or triangles are probably set too low.
