Ahh, now it's clicking. And then I can keep adding layers to add varying degrees of darkness and opacity and simpy control it that way. Here's a better version of what I was thinking: http://i.imgur.com/eZVreay.jpg Will work on it a bit, and thank you both. I'm not the best at this but I easily got your help! GL

Thank you much for the welcome and the help Though could you take that vingette and make the darkness progressive from the focus area out to the edge so you can see the entire image, but most is blackened out? Let me link my images. The original and the vignette version. See how most of the image is black in the vignette? What I was looking to do is start a little darker from the dragon's face and then become darker and darker from that point, but keep the background visible. Thank you again! http://i.imgur.com/TEttuAT.jpg http://i.imgur.com/4cPv8tr.jpg GL

Hello, Did the searching for this question and didn't see it exactly addressed (though I did find some installs that may have the feature and look interesting). I'm looking to take a certain part of an image (a small shape of it) and then apply darkening, progressively, from that small area. That is, the image gets darker and darker as it radiates out from that shape. Like a vignette, but progressively darkening from the point rather than a strait darkness. Tried playing around with curves and didn't really do this effect. Thank you to any and all who can help! GL
