Merry Christmas
This tutorial is my own creation and any resemblance to any other tutorial, is purely coincidental.
Please do not copy and use as your own work if you wish to translate please email me
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
Animation Shop I will ref: to this as AS
Tube of choice- I used Elias Chatzoudis I brought mine when he was with MPT, but he has his own site here http://eliasartshop.com/
A winter scene background of choice, sorry I can not share
A animation of choice again can not share, but there are loads out there
A window frame choice I used one from Chicas Kits.
Drop Shadow I used was H & V 4 Opacity 40 Blur 5
Font of choice I used Winter Flakes
Lets begin
Remember to save often
Step 1.
Open up the background you are going to use,
Image 600 x 400 select all copy and paste your background in to selection,
select none, name this background
Step 2
Copy and paste your window frame,
copy, and paste your tube place where you wish
I put mine on the left hand side give it a drop shadow.
Close them both off for now
Step 3
Add copyright, close off the copyright for now,
add your name, and Merry Christmas, give it a drop shadow and your name.
Shift D twice this is for your forum and AV, put these image's to one side
Step 4
Open up AS and find the animation you are going to use,
**copy merged and take this to AS, and make the same number of frames
as your animation has, the one I used had three,
then Edit Select All, Propagate do the same with your animation,
and paste this into your new image, **,
back to PSP close off these layers and open the others,
and repeat ** - **, when happy save as a GIF.
Step 5
Back to PSP open up one of the the image's you put to one side,
now as the frame is 600 X 400 you will need to re-size it,
what I did was copy the frame and paste as a new image, and Image re-size, as shot one, then deleted the window frame on on my tag,
and pasted the frame as new layer, move the layers around till you am happy,
if you paste it as the top layer you can see where it all looks best,
see my tag for ref:. I then croped the rest of the tag to 600 X 300,
then repeat step 4
Shot 1
