My question about combining 2 curves into one had no relation to your brush burning.

Hi, Ced:

If you want to combine 2 curve by themselves, use actions. Save the curves and create an action recalling the two curve with opacity turned to 50% for making the average. Then you can play the action on any image. If you do not want to save the curves, create them from scratch while in actions. The problem occurs if you want "graduated" curves, which I take it to mean with masks. The masks can be incorporated in the action but they won't be applicable, I think, across the board to other images with different pixel dimensions.

For Bob, have you tried using lens correction function the "vignette' option instead of brush burning to darken your edges?
