Fading Border

Programs Needed: Adobe Photoshop
Importance: Very good to know

Choosing Your Image

This creates a bit like a dreamy border around your image so you may want to think about what image you are gonig to use. I am going to use this one:

Start

Ok, now open up Photoshop and then open up your image (make sure it has a transparent background), then click on the seletion tool (or press M) and set the feather to 25. You can change this if you want to but that is what I am going to use.

Now, select the middle of your image, make sure it's a fair way away from the border, then click on Select>Inverse. Now the selection will be on the outside of the image, not the middle. Then click on delete, wallah! Now click on Select>Deselect.

Turnout

Now, here's how mine turned out:

You cannot save this image as a gif or else the fading will not occur.
