Can a vignette be applied under Advanced and Basic edit rules?

From my understanding, it can in Advanced, but not in basic. |

Definitely not in basic. As long as you don't go overboard (as with anything else) it's ok in advanced. |

I think you could apply it in basic if you shoot RAW and add it in during the RAW conversion? Not positive about that though. Otherwise, probably just advanced. |

Nope.
From the basic editing rules:
You may not:
* use ANY editing tool to create new image area, objects or features (such as vignettes, lens flare or motion) that didn’t already exist in your original capture.

Buy the 18-135mm lens for Nikon, the vignetting is natural:( |

I got dq'd in an advanced challenge for adding a halo of light around the main subject. See the In The Style of: Heida challenge with this photo:
It would not surprise me if adding a vignette that was not present in your original photo would be classed under the same rule. Best to ask SC.

So is the verdict yes in advanced (only slighly though) and absolutely not in advanced. I'll send a ticket to SC when I get the chance I guess.

The verdict is "Absolutely not, never!" in Basic Editing, and "OK within reason in Advanced Editing." We landscape photographers use vignettes and gradients all the time. I can recall a couple instances where the vignetting was so extreme it became a distinct feature and the image was DQ'd (the one posted below is one of them) but that's rare.

The one posted below is NOT a vignette. Vignetting the frame (darkening the corners) is fine in Advanced, but drawing in shapes or features like lens flare is not. |

Well, when you isolate an oval area and darken (or lighten) everything else around it, that's a vignette. And when you do it with absolutely no feathering, like was done here, then it becomes "extreme" in the sense that it creates a distinct feature, which is what *I* said and is what *you* said, so...
Sheesh...

Can you use photo filters in basic editing? As in the ones used to change the overall tint of photographs. I believe image> adjustments> photo filter |

Yes. Changing the hue of an image is allowed in Basic....AS LONG AS...it doesn't require any form of selection.

What Judi said, it has to be applied to the entire photo.
