I would consider myself good at using photshop, but there is one thing I dont know how to do, which is make a picture gradually fade to transparent when you go from the centre to the edges if you know what I mean. It's really pissing me off :banghead:

Hm, for a "gradual transparencity" you must use the "layer mask" (Layer > Add Layer Mask / or in the Layers box, on bottom, the 2nd button). And then just draw a black & white gradient (using gradient tool) in the mask you just created.

you could also use a paintbrush and change the opacity if fading has anything to do with what your talking about
