Can you guys help me out?

kind regards,

Create a selection for half the rectangle and apply a gradient.
Repeat for the other half of the rectangle to diversify the colors of the gradient.
Blur as desired at the edges.

Just to exemplify:
A slightly more convoluted way Wink  The logo does not look very large so I made a suitable 'U' shaped path, then;

1. I could not find a suitable gradient, so I made one. Attached, unzip, put it in your gradients folder.
2. Using a semi-fuzzy brush, sized for the project (about 26-ish)
3. Using the paint tool
4. Dynamics Option Colour-from-Gradient
5. Dynamic Options / Fade Options Fade lenght about 400 (value depends on logo size)
6. Edit -> Stroke path using options Stroke with a paint tool and Emulate Brush Dynamics
7. Put the path to a selection & Cut the selection. ( then a bit of tidy required by the user)
Awesome guys! That's exactly what i was looking for!
