Need Help creating Oval shape Gradient background

[emailaak]

Can someone tell me the steps in creating a background like this:



I was able to use a gradient in Radial mode, but can't get that oval effect, please help.

I think a Radial Gradient was used....

But the oval light shape may have come from an outer glow from the text. Could be wrong.

Its a vignette, go to if i'm not mistaken filter > lens correction . custom ( second tab) look for vignette, there are two movable markers the first deals with the midpoint i believe (am not a Photoshop right now) , the further you move it to the left of the screen the smaller the light circle will be , then amount which deals with how much of a shadow (black) actually goes into the vignette )

inkz you may just be right , i was wondering how a vignette would get that far into the corner...It probably in hindsight is just a greyish background and large outer glow (white on the text)

Try both

 

[Stric9]

1) fill the background with the color you want
2) select the marquie tool and select the area you want and fill with white on a new layer
3) apply gaussian blur to the new white layer
4) select the move tool and put it where you want it.

I am a complete newbie to photshop, how do i apply gaussian blur after filling the oval with white?

 

[Stric9]

Go to filter>blur>gaussian blur and adjust the slider to just the right amount that you want.

Why not just do a radial gradient ant then reduce the hight?
