what do you want it to fade to? a quick and easy way (and NON destructive) would be to use a mask so it would blend in to the underlying image or to the background.

step 1. create a new layer (make it the color you want the background to be)
step 2. click on the "layer mask" icon to create a mask
step 3. select the blend tool and change your color to black (anything black will blend into the background)
step 4. drag in the direction you want the fade to be.
This method is non destructive and allows you to experiment more with the fasde without altering your image.

Thanks from me, too! I always went into "quick" mask and did it, but this looks much better!
