Hi all,

I have a question: I want to create a vignetting effect to my project (like when the corners are burnt a little like when watching an old projector for instance) and can't figure out a nice way to do this.

My current direction involved using a radial gradient that faded from the middle to black (or brown or or etc) at the outside and then fiddling with the alpha over time, but its just ends up looking blurry and muddy and makes all the graphics below it looks gross.

Has anyone any suggestions or help that can help me in this hour of need?

By the way I'm on Flash MX 2004 so I can't use transfer modes (theres a reason for this so no, upgrading won't be a useful answer).

Thanks in advance!

Seth
