How do I apply a gradiant to a photoshop image?
I have tried looking at a number of online blogs and instructions but they were the wrong version -- or they assumed too much knowledge that I did not have and thus stepped over some steps.
I am using Photoshop version CS6
Specifically, what I am trying to do is this. I have an image that I want to fade to white on the left side. In other words, if you look from the right side to the left side, it will appear as if it fades away into white. I want it to be a very uniformed fade as well.
Is there a good tutorial somewhere that I can follow?

1. You need 2 layers, top layer has your picture on it the bottom layer is all white.
2. Add a layer mask to your picture layer.
3. With your layer mask still selected, activate the gradient tool (press g)
4. Make sure you have a white to black gradient active in the toolbar at the top.
5. While holding shift use the mouse to draw a line with the gradient tool from the right side of the canvas to the left.
And your done.
