To create instant vignettes, make use of Paint Shop Pro's Feather function. Open your image and increase its color depth to 16.7 million colors. Choose a color that you'd like your image to blend to in the Background color square. Now right-click on the Selection tool, click on Tool Options, and select Ellipse in the dialog box that appears. Set the Feather in the Tool control to about 8. Now start from the center of the image and drag the marquee out toward the edges. Next, go to the Selections menu and choose Invert. Press Delete on your keyboard, and you have an instant vignette!
