Help with vignetting effects in PS

Hi everyone

I would like to explore vignetting effects using photoshop CS2.

What is the best way of doing this, through actions?

Can anyone point to good links or tutorials on the net?

Thanks

Spooky, here you go this what i used and have a big list of photoshop link but this will get you going. I use this effect on some of my pics as in portraits of the kids and stuff and in some cases some pics look ok.
Anyhow enjoy it. http://www.chainstyle.com/tutorials/vignetting.html

BBJ thanks for that, much easier than I thought. I have done a couple of nice ones up all ready though I am sure there is more to it at an advanced level.

Maybe a silly question but how do you pronounce vignette?

Spooky
Not a silly Q - it's pronounced vin-yet
Edit: Too fast John - you beat me - at least we both said the same thing!

Gee, I must be a lazy sod :lol: , all I've ever done is make a selection, feather then add a curves layer which masks out the non-selected area...

I'm a lazy sod too Andrew. I use a plugin that does the whole shebang in seconds.
