Gradient overlay

[blank]

select the layer on top, go up to the : layer menu > layer mask > reveal all or hide all

this makes a layer mask (which works like an alpha channel specifically for that layer) so just draw a black and white gradient into the layer mask and Dun Dun DOoooo!! you should now have a nice gradient fade to show the layer underneath.

:-)


thats a nice non destructive method.

or the destructive method.

select the top layer, click on the quick mask button (the square with a circle in below the forground/background colours ont he tools palette) now draw a black/white gradient (it should show as a red mask gradient) now click the quick mask off button and you'll get a nice selection.

Hit delete and you should get a perfect gradient fade.

thats 2 methods for you hop they help :-)
