Drop Shadow I used was H & V 5 Opacity 40 Blur 5

Lets begin
Remember to save often
Step 1.
Transparent image 600 x 300 fill with a gradient that goes well with your tube,
I picked out the colour in her wings,
perset shape find the one that you like if possible like mine, see my tag for ref:, mine was number 14,
draw a shape to fit your image, the one I used was black, Objects, Align center in Canvas,
while it is still as a vector pull it to fit the image, convert to raster layer name this Diamond
Step 2
Active the diamond layer, and take your freehand section tool and draw in the middle of diamonds,
again see my tag promote to layer, KEEP selected, modify expand by 1, invert, copy and paste your tube,
and place where you want to over the promoted layer, hit delete, copy and paste your tube again,
and and hit delete, select none, move the tubes down under the diamond layer,
on theses two apply your favourite mode I did overlay on one and burn on the other,
you can now delete the promoted layer.
Step 3
Active your diamond layer and give it a drop shadow, copy and paste your tube,
re-size if it needs it, please remember if you re-size to, Adjust, Sharpen, give it a drop shadow.
Shift D this is for your AV, put to one side for now.
Step 4
New layer fill with a light colour, Select all Modify Contact by 6, hit delete, select none,
give this frame the same drop shadow, as your tube and diamond layer,
add your copyright and name, give your name the same drop shadow as your tube
Step 5
Active your diamond layer and apply, Adjust, Add Noise, Uniform ticked, Monochrome ticked, and Noise set at 50,
copy merge and take to AS, paste as a new frame, back to PSP, undo noise,
and apply again but set noise at 54, copy merge and take to AS, paste after current frame, back to PSP,
undo noise, and apply again but set the noise at 58, save as a GIF
Step 6
Open up the image you put to one side, crop 150 X 150 using the part of your image, you want to use.
Please remember if you use any part of your tube add the copywrite.
