Rectangle border with rounded edges.

Post by Beavo »

I managed to make a collage of photos a few years ago, but for the life of me I can't remember how to make a photo have a rectangular shape with rounded corners that fades around the edges so that there are no sharp edges.

Does anyone know where I can find a tutorial for this please.

I remember it was only taking me about 30 seconds per photo when I got going so it must be pretty simple.

I hope that made sense,
Cheers

I thank you both for the question and the answer.
The Selection Type menu was hidden by default on my version of PSP - the menu simply need to be expanded to see it.
