I only installed it today, and having a play about. Is there an option within the programme for darkening certain parts of the photo, like this one for example??

John,

If you select gradient (press L on keyboard, first red arrow) then click on the gradient (second red arrow) and select FG to Transparent (presuming your foreground colour is black) this should work.



p.s. there's a little add-on for gimp to make it look more like photoshop wink
