FTU Tut - PFD Exclusive Siggy Set

Aug. 19th

PFD Exclusive Siggy Set



Thanks for dropping by.  I made a siggy set using an

exclusive tube from Pics For Design HERE and a FTU scrapkit by Kristin

called No More Drama. HERE I hope you can understand these instructions, I will

try and make them as easy as possible to follow, explaining each step as

much as possible.  Have fun.

Open a blank image 600w x 250h, flood fill with white.  I also work on the

avatar the same time as the siggy so you can also open an image 150 x150,

flood fill with white too. 

Remember whenever you open an element, paper etc, always

shift d to duplicate it, x out the original.

you can use any elements, scraps, etc that you prefer

this is just a guide, make it your own.  Have fun.

Open from the scrapkit - Disco Ball

copy and paste it onto your canvas.

Resize 80 %, Place towards the right side

of your canvas, duplicate and mirror so that

they are almosting touching in the middle. 

duplicate one more and move this one in the center

then move it below the other 2 disco ball layers.  I then

merged these 3 balls to one layer.   Go to raster one,

bottom layer, go to selections, select all, float, defloat,

then highlight your disco ball layer, selections, invert, tap

delete key to get rid of the excess ball layer, select none.

Open star border element, copy and paste it onto your canvas.

resize - 55 % and move it up towards the right side of canvas.

Open Butterfly 1 - resize 20 % and place up on the right side

use the deform tool to rotate it a bit to the left.

Add dropshadow to the butterfly and stars - i use 2, -2, 30, 3.00

Now you can add your tube, resize to your liking, and position.

go to the ball layer, go to selections, select all, float, defloat,

highlight your tube layer, selections invert, tap delete, don't deselect yet

go to your stars layer and tap delete, this should get rid of excess

stars and tubes that are outside the tag layer.

leave the siggy for now and go to your avatar canvas.

copy and paste the disco ball, resise it 40 %.

copy and paste your tube and resize it to your liking

go to the bottom white layer, raster 1, selections, select all,

float, defloat, highlight the tube layer, selections, invert, tap the

delete key, then highlight the disco ball layer, tap delete, selections,

select none.  Add your copyright to avatar and siggy.

now we will make the borders on both.

go back to your siggy canvas, raster 1 layer

go to selections, modify, contract, by 8, click ok

selections, invert, layer new raster layer, move it to

the top of your layers, flood fill with color of choice

i used a purple to match the tag d727ce

then go to effects - texture effects - tiles

settings i used for the tile effects are:

Hexagon, color ff80ff (pink)

Tile Ang - 75

Tile Size - 8

BorderSize - 1

Smoothness - 25

Depth - 1

Ambience - 0

Shininess - 50

Angle - 315

Intensity - 50

Elevation - 30

selections, select none.

do the same for your avatar except when you contract,

use 5 instead of 8 for a smaller border.

now for the animation effects.

Siggy

close all layers except your disco ball layer and white layer

edit, copy merged, open animation shop and paste it as a new animation

duplicate this layer until you have 10 frames,

go to edit, select all, then go to Effects,  apply image effects and use

these settings:

Elapsed time is ticked

effect - underwater

Customize: - apply both

sunlight - 10

waterdepth - 10

click ok,

click ok again

view your animation to see if you like it.

for the avatar, I slowed the animation properties down by

going to Animation - frame properties - set display time at 15

but left the siggy one at 10.

keep all layers selected

go back to psp now and hide the bottom 2 layers and unhide

all the layers that you had closed.

go to edit, copymerged

back to animation shop

paste this as a new animation

then go to edit copy

then go to edit propagate paste

then working on your ten animated frame image,

go to edit, paste into selected frame, i always

zoom it in so i can position it correctly

now go view your animation to see if you like the

positioning etc.  I then save this image for a blank

naming it with your tag name and ani blank

I save it as a mng and a gif.  I always oversave my

blanks LOL.

do the same steps for your avatar and save your blanks

now you can add names by typing up the name, copying it

and paste it in animation shop as a new image, then go to

edit copy, and paste it into selected frame, it will go onto

all the frames.  if it doesn't, go to edit, propagate paste but

as we already used that for the top layers of the tag, it still

should be selected.

If you have any questions, email me at isweetcan59@hotmail.com

and I will try and help you out.  you can also email me your results

if you try my tut.  Have a nice day.

Did this set while I was writing the tut, used a different PFD tube
