Practical Tips

• Use a wide feather for natural-looking vignettes — sharp edges look artificial.
• Pair with sepia or grayscale for a classic vintage photography look.
• Center the vignette on your subject — for off-center subjects, adjust the focal point if the tool supports it.

Does vignette work with transparent images?

The vignette darkens edges by blending black tones. On transparent PNGs, it adds semi-transparent black rather than solid darkness, preserving the alpha channel.

What is the ideal vignette strength?

For most photos, 30-50% intensity with wide feathering looks natural. Heavier vignettes (70%+) suit dramatic or artistic compositions.
