: Apply vignette in Krita Is there a way to apply a vignette effect onto an image in Krita?

@Moriarity648

Krita is an excellent digital drawing/painting application, but it wouldn't be my first choice for editing photographs, although it does have basic photo editing tools that can be used. It can certainly be done.


Choose Black as the foreground colour
Duplicate the image layer
Make an elliptical selection
Select > Feather selection, and choose however many pixels you want to feather it by
Select > Invert selection
Edit > Fill with foreground colour


Krita is very slow/laggy when I try to to do this on Windows, might be better in Linux however.

You might be better using a different application, such as GIMP. In GIMP open an image and click Tools > GEGL Operation > scroll down the list and select Vignette, then move the sliders as required. This is almost instant, and there's a live preview. Also you can apply the GEGL Vignette filter on a transparent layer instead, then reduce the opacity if required, or apply Gaussian blur.
