Adobe Photoshop :: Alpha fades


	Alpha fades Im am struggling to do this simple thing, new to photoshop. I want to take a picture and fade the edges into nothingness. Much like a gradient but the picture fades out based upon my selection, how can this be achieved?? Thanks Add a Layer Mask (look in the Layers menu), and put a gradient in the mask. -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- Thanks. Added mask, I am able to put a gradient on the original image but not on the mask, I have slecetd it from the layers menu? -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- Wait! Figured it out. John I must thank you!!! ;-) -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- Heres a pic I uploaded to show as an example, note the gradient on the roller door... <http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1ahQqCEZPvIZG2vANHwc6kzSGxJVk0> -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- Thanks again, all this time a simple user error...
