It’s assumed that you have working knowledge on how to use filters/plugins.
This tutorial is written using PSP 9 but it can also be done in other versions
Filter Alien Skin Xenofex 2 Constellation
Tube of choice- I used PinUp Toons I brought mine when they were sold at CILM but you can get them all here now
http://www.cdoestore,com/
Drop Shadow I used was H & V 4 Opacity 40 Blur 5
Font of choice I used Androgyne
Make a gradient using two colours from your tube.
Lets begin
Remember to save often
Step 1.
New image 600 x 300 fill with a light colour from your tube I used #e4c8d2,
New layer fill with your gradient, apply Effects Distortion Pixelate,
apply Effects Distortion Twirl, Effects Edge Effects Enhance,
lower this layer down to 50, take you magic wand,
and click in the lighter colour of your twirl, promote to layer,
and duplicate twice, giving you three layers name them Constellation 1, 2, and 3 apply Alien Skin Xenofex 2 Constellation, hitting the random button,
then on all three layer apply User Defined Filter Factory Default,
this makes the layers stand out
Step 2
Copy and paste your tube re-size if necessary,
Adjust, Sharpen and give it a drop shadow,
I also made a bubble so she looked like she was speaking,
you will find this in your preset tools, moved it near her mouth,
and wrote hello in it, merged these two layers down
Step 3
Take you text tool and give your tag a saying,
or use the same as me, ***before you convert to raster layer,
click on in and where you see the + on the layer right click this,
and you will see a + convert text to curves,
and then As Character Shapes,*** see shot 1
Shift D this is for your AV, put this image to one side
Step 4
New raster layer fill with a light colour I used white,
name this border,
and give it a drop shadow, add your copyright and name, on your name repeat ***
Open up AS
Step 5
With your Constellation layers two and three closed,
copy merge and take over to AS, paste as a new layer,
back to PSP close Constellation one and open up layer two, copy merge,
and take over to AS, and paste after current frame, back to PSP.,
and close Constellation two off,
and open layer three merge and take over to AS,
and paste after current frame, set frames at 30, save as GIF
Step 6
Back to PSP open up the image you put to one side,
and crop this by150 X 150, using the part of image you want,
repeat step four and five, add your name and copyright
PLEASE remember if you use any part of your tube to add your copywrite
