complicated for me!  Sorry!

OK, I got this one...

Er...how?  When I go to "mask" and click "load from disk", then 
click "circle", which is the closest option it gives me to "oval", I 
get an automatic mask that looks like it's been torn out of the photo-
-huge jaggedy edges all over, and seemingly no way to edit, change 
the location or size.  I can't figure out another way to select an 
oval mask...can you please outline exact steps?

As you can see, didn't get this far.

I did see a feather option under "selections", but it was grayed out 
whenever I looked at it.

I think I could just about handle these two steps if I could get that 
far. :)

Please more info, and thanks very much for your patience!
