PSE10: Is there an easy way to add a vignette?

Besides using Filter > Correct Camera Distortion, is there an easy way to put a vignette on a picture?  The method I just named doesn't give me the smooth, uniform fade that I need for creating collages, etc.  Thanks!

Sure, just use any selection tool to make your selection.  Here, I simply used an elliptical selection:
Then, use Select...Feather to feather the selection.  I used 10px.  Hit the Ctrl+J keys to copy that feathered selection to a new layer with a transparent background:

  • Is there an easy way to add a location map to Pages?

    Hi,
    Using the latest version of Pages, is there an easy way to add a location map?
    Many Thanks
    Simon.

    Are you trying to copy an image from the Maps application? 
    If you are, the easiest way I have found to do this is by going to Edit>Copy in Maps and then pasting the image in the Pages document. 

  • Is there an easy way to add a sketch to Apple Email?

    I struggled with a new-to-me sketch program that I found on an Internet website, but I was finally able to copy and paste it to an Email message. It was supposed to have been easier than that, but that was the best I could do.I then realized that I had to add a few lines and notes. That got me to thinking. By now, you'd think that there would be an easy way to add graphic material to Apple Email. Is there?
    I have an iMac.

  • Is there an easy way to add a desktop shortcut for all users?

    Looking for an easy way to add a shortcut to an app for all users.

    William is correct. There are global system settings, and then there are personal user settings. Adding a shortcut to the desktop, or more commonly the Dock is a personal setting.
    Unless its in some kind of mass deployment scenario where you can create a pre programed image for large amounts of computers which has it already has your app shortcut setup, its easier to just do it one user at a time.

  • Why isn't there an easy way to add a photo to photoStream from the finder?

    Apple makes it easy to share your photo with Twitter, FB, Flickr, etc. Why not Photo Stream? As far as I know, the only way to add a photo to photo stream is to open iPhoto and then add the photo to that.  This seems to be a very poor way of quickly adding a photo.

    If you have a suggestion make it here: Apple Feedback. This is the wrong venue.

  • Is there an easy way to add general holidays and such into iCal?

    I would like to have my iCal show me general holidays, thanksgiving, christmas, etc. I can't understand why there cannot be an option to show or not show various holidays. I realized a few weeks ago as I was trying to make some holiday travel plans on iCal, that I didn't have a way to import such dates.
    Am I going to have to add these for each year?? Is there a better way?

    Ahhhh, neber mind, I just saw the sticky on the top of this section which led me to all sorts of calendars. I've never heard of these before. Are these generally known?

  • Is there an easy way to add a logo to idvd 7 template?

    Hi,
    I have read the mac week article about replacing the watermark with a logo. I have been downloading the xcode 3.2 for the past 8 hours.... am dubious as to whether it will work. I really like one DVD template and want to use it but add the clients logo. Does anyone know a workaround?
    Thanks!!

    Hi again,
    I looked at that link.. I think its to add a watermark to a video.. Adding the watermark to the IDVD template proved trickier/more time consuming- than adding a logo to an existing video.. But I think this artilce below was very useful, if anyone ever wants to do it again.. and can spare 2 days.

  • After editing images in Aperture, I want to overwrite the editing to an external drive.  Is thee an easy way to "add" the new work without the  long process of backing up the whole library.

    After editing images in Aperture, I want to overwrite the new editing to a backup external drive.  Is there an easy way to "add" the new work without the  long process of backing up the whole library.

    But the Library is not a program.  I use SuperDuper, and it is smart enough to treat Finder Packages (such as the Library) as a whole bunch of files and folders, and overwrites only those that have changed.  Can't CCC be set up the same way?

  • HT1660 is there an easy way to delete the whole itunes library and and start again. I notice there is only an add file/folder button but no remove facility

    I recently upgraded to the iphone 5 and managed to sort the transition out with little trouble but noticed when I tried to put my music on that Itunes has messed with album info and either it or me has generated several copies of the same albums over the years and it makes it quite dificult to sort it all out before reloading on the phone. To stop the chaos I had hoped to clear the library and start again but cant find a way to do it. I was hoping to sort all my music out in original files and consolidate them into a proper folder. HOw do I do this. I notice there is an add fole and folder button but no take away??? is there an easy way?

    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. If you have multiple references to the same files then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you don't want to do it by hand. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

  • Is there an easy way to make JSpinner wrap around at max/min values?

    I have several pages with a couple dozen JSpinners to set various values - mostly numeric, but some are not.
    I would like to make them wrap around when either the max or min values are reached.
    Is there an easy way to do this?
    I was hoping for something like an "enableWraparound" property, but I haven't found such an animal.
    I suspect I could add value change listeners to all the components and do it by brute force,
    but there are too many spinners scattered around to make that an option I would like to take.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Ok, it looks like custom spinner models are the way to go.
    Hopefully, I can create a couple that are generic enough to meet my requirements without too much pain.
    It looks like the ones I have already created will be easy enough to modify.
    Thanks for the feedback.

  • Is there an easy way to clear the contents of Download Folder?

    Is there an easier way to clear out files (send to trash) from the downloads folder, other than dragging one by one? The downloads folder closes immediately upon dragging one file out.

    You do not need to invoke Finder to do this. Create a new empty Automator workflow and use the "Run Shell Script" option. Paste in the following....
    mv ~/Downloads/* ~/.Trash
    You can then save the workflow as an application, attach it as a Finder action or add it to the scripts menu, whichever you like better.
    If you would like to bypass the Trash and just completely delete the Downloads folder contents immediately, then paste in this command:
    rm -rf ~/Downloads/*

  • Is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress  itunes  doesn't recognize the feed. my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/me

    is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress  itunes  doesn't recognize the feed.
    my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/methods):
    garageband : create & edit audio. add 1400x1400 image.
    share to itunes.
    drag file to desktop.
    upload .m4a file to google drive.
    create a link post in wordpress using "podcast" tag & create "podcast" category.
    click on "entries rss" in wordpress, which takes me to the rss subscribe page (which is basically just my wordpress address with "/feed" at the end.
    i copy this url.
    go to itunes store > then "submit a podcast"
    itunes gives me the error message "we had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed."
    when i try to subscribe to my podcast in itunes, it does, but gives me no episodes available.
    i went back into wordpress and changed settings/ reading settings to : "full text" from "summary"
    still the same error message.
    i added a feedburner step after wordpress but got the same errors. i don't think i should have to add feedburner.
    wordpress seems to be encapsulating the rss, what am i doing wrong?
    this so much easier when you could go directly from garage band to iweb to mobileme; i miss those apple days (also idisk).

    if anyone has a super EASY process, i would LOVE to know what it is. EASY, meaning no html and also free. there are many free online storage systems available, many of which i currently use. the above process was just me trying to figure it out, if you have an easier method, please share. thank you so much!

  • Is there an easy way to eliminate duplicate tracks from iTunes on a mac?

    All of a sudden I have over 6,500 duplicate tracks in my iTunes.  Not entire albums but many tracks from an album are duplicated.  Is there an easy way to get rid of these tracks or do I have to do this one by one?  Also why would this be happening? I have "Keep iTunes Media Organized" checked as well as "Copy files to iTunes when adding to library".

    It is hard to say why.  iTunes is unlikely to do this all its own and there is probably something you did like add a folder that is not part of the current media collection thinking it needed adding, but it had already been added in the past.
    There is no simple, universal panacea for duplicates.  You can try some of the suggestions below.
    How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2905
    http://dougscripts.com/itunes/itinfo/dupin.php (commercial)
    Posts by turingtest2 about different types of duplicates and techniques- https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3555601 and https://discussions.apple.com/message/16042406 (Note: The DeDuper script is for Windows)
    Frankly, I would do it manually.  As you can see from turingtest2's post, some duplicates are not really duplicates and I would rather do it manually than discover that a script had removed my only copy of a file (yes, I have backups but I may not notice for a year or so a file is no longer there, by which time I would have overwritten the backup because I do not have drive space for storing a year's worth of weeky iTunes backups tens of GB in size).
    I would also review how you add media to iTunes.  It should not be producing all that many duplicates.

  • Is there an easy way to create breadcrumbs in Muse?

    I'm creating a new site and I want to add some breadcrumb navigation links, in addition to using the Menu Bar widget.
    Is there an easy way to build breadcrumb links? Or do I just create them manually?

    I got these ones for free when they were first released Adobe Muse SEO Breadcrumbs Widget You have to enter each breadcrumb which is annoying, but they're pretty easy to use. They also use schema markup which is something that no one has paid attention to. Google already noticed them in a search for my site
