Re: [Inkscape-user] Blending one photo into another.

Before I spend a lot of time trying the impossible:

In Gimp it is possible to take two overlapping bitmap images (like photos) and blend one into the other using a gradient on the topmost bitmap? Inkscape has the ability to blend two vector objects in this manner. But what about bitmaps?

Unless I misnderstand completely, this is easy.

Put image2 in a layer on top of image1.

Assign a layer mask to the top layer, and fill the mask with a gradient.

Is this what you're looking for?
