Tip #101 We're fading fast...

How do you get an image to
fade out to the edges ?

* Make a selection in the shape you wish to fade
* Select Feather from the Selection Menu
* Invert selection (Selection Menu)
* Delete, cut or copy.

For more sophisticated fades, build a mask and use the blend tool. Blend from foreground to transparent.

We did a seminar on a whole series of different techniques some time ago in PST&T. I'll try to dig it up and get it into our site here.

(You can also download the Frame Plugin 0.90 from Boxtop Software's Plugins Page, which allows advance results viewing and some other nice adjustment features... http://www.boxtopsoft.com)




I know some of you will have a better method... please share it with the rest of us.
