|

I have an photograph that I want to do this to.
I want one side of the pic to look normal and the other side fade out to transparant.
The pic is in front of a multi colored background. |

Set the gradient to a mask on the layer that you want to fade transparent, and then it will do what you want. |

and just to add for a gradient mask... set the gradient colors black to white (or white to black) |
