I did it before, but I forget how to do it again. Now I selected, contracted by 10 pixels, inversed, feathered by 10 pixels, and then hit the delete key, and get this result.

On the left is what I have in Photoshop, basically the fading concept, and the right is what comes out. You can see the ending point, when I intended it to perfectly fade-in.
Does anyone know how I can get basically the same fade effect, but have the edge of the oval fade into the background and to still not have an end line curve?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you so much!
Photoshop Fading Oval?nortin Lets see, if I'm correct you want the frame to be less noticeable around the MMX picture. Here's my suggestion...
First put the MMX pic on the first layer do nothing with it except you gray scale I guess.
Then make a new layer and put your oval frame over it.
After that use the erase tool with a basic brush at 0% hardness at about 10 pixels.
Then go around the inner part of the oval frame and start erasing very lightly and you'll get it to blend nicely.
I hope this helps you and good luck. ;)
Photoshop Fading Oval?pc security Make your selection, switch to quick mask mode, apply a gaussian blur, come out of quickmask and select inverse, go to edit, then fill with whatever colour is your background
You'll have to feather more than 10 pixels, it sounds like. To better see what your edge is like:
-Instead of using the standard 'feather' option, Make your oval selection, and then switch to 'quick mask' mode (hit the Q key)
-You can then see the selection (default makes the outside of the selection red) and can feather it using filter-%26gt;blur-%26gt;gaussian
-adjust the level of feather you want to get the edge to blend better.
-Once you get the effect you want, get out of quick mask by hitting the 'Q' key again.
Hope This Helps!
