Err, I dont think so. :?

I dont know all the tools in photoshop as I dont it use it that much (mostly use Paint Shop Pro as thats what I've got at work), probably would have been easier to do what you said, if I knew how to do it :roll: :lol:

I just made an elliptical selection, and feathered it by about 150-200 pixels, inverted it, so it was the outside of the circle that was selected, and filled it white with the fill tool. Probably the long way of doing it, but like I said I'm not that hot on photoshop :roll:
