To create web-ready images which have feathered edges, I would simply
use the rectangular selection tool, with feathered edges checked (on), a
radius of, say 20, auto shrink selection
checked (on) and select from the source image and paste to a new image
with a black background.
The result would be an image with edges fading to black and rounded
corners.
For some reason, this does not work any more -- when I paste to the new
black image,
the whole source image gets pasted, not just the selected area and there
are no rounded corners.
I was using Gimp 2.2.10 on MacOS-10.4.7. I Even tried upgrading to
Gimp 2.2.11, with no
improvement.
I did this a million times before successfully and can't understand why
it's not working now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
