Had another play and here's the results...



I'm sure this is the easy stuff, but good fun all the same.

One question for those who know, can I soften the edge of a cropped image rather than adding light or dark shadows?

I've done that, but wondered if there was a short cut in CS2 or perhaps a filter I can't find?

Do it once by hand then record it as an "Action".
