Any resemblance to another
tutorial is purely coincidental.
For this tutorial, I’m using a
tube by Daniel Esparza
You can purchase this tube at
CDO.
Supplies:
Tube of Choice
SpawnsFSMask98 Blog
Plugins:
Muras Meister Copies
Xero Radiance
EyeCandy4000 Gradient Glow
Animation Shop
Open a 50x250 new image.
Fill with black.
Now open a 600x250 new image.
Copy & paste the black image
5x along the new image.
Merge the black layers together.
Using your magic wand,
select the first two black
images on the left side of the your tag.
Paste your tube as a new layer.
Selections invert &
press delete.
Select none.
This should leave the tube
on the two black images.
Repeat this with the last
two black images on the right side.
You also want to do the center one
as well.
Merge the tube layers & black
images together.
Paste your tube as a new layer.
In your layer palette, move this
layer to the bottom layer of your tag.
Apply these plugins to the layer.
Muras Meister Copies

Back on the black bar layer,

Repeat a 2nd time except this time with Black Halo.
Add a new raster layer to above the bottom layer of
the tag. Fill this layer with white or light color
from your tag.
Apply the mask SpawnsFSMask98.
Make sure Invert this layer is checked.
Merge group.
Apply gradient glow Black Halo glow width 3.00
to this layer.
Add text or wordart of choice to the tag.
I did black for my Fill color and white for my
stroke color. Stroke width 1.0.
Position as wanted on the tag & convert to raster.
Add a new top raster layer.
Fill with black or dark color.
Select this layer with your magic wand tool.
Selections modify contrast by 4.
Press delete button.
Select none.
Adjust add noise Uniform 25.
Now merge the border layer with the
wordart layer..
Add artist copyright information & name.
We're going to get ready to animate the tag.
If you don't wish to animate, you can save it now.
Open Animation shop.
Copy merged and paste as new animation.
Return to PSP.
Duplicate the 5 bar tube layer.
Move the copy layer to the left.
You want it to appear beside the original layer.
Copy merged and return to AS.
Paste after current frame on the original image
you pasted.
Return to PSP.
Edit undo move.
Copy merged & paste after Frame 2 in AS.
This should be your 3rd frame in there.
Now you want to repeat the movement of
the duplicated layer. Except this time you want
to move the layer to the right of the original bar layer.
Copy merged & paste after the 3rd frame.
This should give your 4 frames so far.
Now we're going to stay in AS.
Edit -select all - copy.
Paste as new animation.
Edit -select all
Animation - Reverse Frames.
Edit -Select all -copy
Back to original animation.
Click on frame 4.
Paste after frame 4.
This should give you 8 frames total.
Edit -select all.
Animation -Frame properties -change to 20.

If happy, save as gif.
If not, tweak & adjust as wanted.
