This tutorial is my own creation and any similarity to any other tutorial, is purely coincidental.
Please do not copy as use as your own work.
This tutorial is written using PSP 9 but it can also be done in other versions.
I will refer to Animation Shop as AS

It’s assumed that you have working knowledge on how to use filters/plugins.
Please look at my TOU for more info.
Filter Eye Candy Gradient Glow
Tube of choice- One with its own background would be good.

I’m using a stunning tube by Max-13Tulmes this was a free tube at www.PicsForDesign.com when this tutorial was written.
Drop Shadow I used was H & V 4 Opacity 50 Blur 5
Font of choice I used Angel Tears

Lets begin
Remember to save often

Step 1.
Open a image 600 x 300 Select all.

Copy the background of the tube you are using or one of your own,
Resize if necessary, paste into selection, effects enhance, name this background

Step 2
If you are using the same tube as me you will see the Butterfly is a separate tube

Close the background, butterfly, and copyright off and copy merge and paste as new image as you will need to resize it , take it to your image, I resized by 50% as its a large tube, Adjust Sharpen, copy and paste as a new image on your background image, at this stage crop your tag, name this Lady

Step 3
Back to your tube and close of the lady.

And open up the butterfly copy and paste as new layer resize it again by 50% and Sharpen, copy and move on to the lady's finger, now duplicate four times and each time resize by 80% and move each one up till the last one is near the top of tag,
see my tag for ref:
Starting at the first butterfly name them 1-5 close them all off apart from number five

Step 4
New raster layer fill with a dark colour from your tube I used #243135,

Selections, Select all Modify Contract by 6, hit delete,
Select none, give it a drop shadow.

Shift D this is for your AV, put to one side

Step 5
Add your copyright and name,

On my name I applied Eye Candy Gradient Glow, glow width 3 and colour Pride,
Open up AS

Step 6

With all the butterflies closed copy merged open up take over to AS and paste as a new image number five butterfly, copy merged take to AS and paste after current frame back to PSP close 5 and open 4 do this till all your butterflies are on your tag, this should give you 6 frames Edit Select all, Animation, frame properties put this to 120, as you do not want the butterfly to be fast, I will leave this up to you, when happy save as GIF

Step 7
Open up the image you put to one side

And crop the piece you want to use for your AV by 150 x 150
Repeat step 4 and give your name the same Gradient Glow as you used on your forum tag

PLEASE remember to add your copyright


I hope you enjoyed my tutorial ant questions please email me on pompy9642@msn.com




I would love to see your work, and put it on my site
