Now this thing should pop up, make the top & left 15 pixels and the right & bottom just subtract 15 from it.


Step 3
Go to the Selection tab and click Invert or press Ctrl+Shift+I. Now you image should have two marquee.


Step 4
Fill the inside with white, so it'll look like this.


Step 5
Right-click and copy it then undo it so you`ll have your orignal image. Now paste it as a New Layer.

Step 6
Go to Adjust --> Blur --> Gaussian Blur...
Make it whatever radius you want (it depends on the size of the image) I`m going to use 15.00


Now you`re finished ^_^ or you can make it lighter by pressing F8 and changing the opacity.
