What you need: PSP 8 or 9. Download a 30 day
trial here. ZIP with materials download here. Open the tube in PSP. Open the font and minimize to your taskbar.
You will see the font in your text tool.
The idea for this tag is from my mail friend Dreama.
She granted me permission to make this tag for you.
Dreama also did provide the tube.
"Thanks for the idea and the tube dear.
I am sure the PSP community appreciates this very much."
Save often.
Let's go. Good luck.....
Open a new image 400 X 300
> Transparent.
Foreground color to #bea086,background to #fffdf1.
Fill your image with your right mouse button (the light color).
Foreground color to #906b50 background color to #bb966c.
Click
and use Chell Grome Bold font (in ZIP).
B for Bold > Size 36 > Stroke 1,0 > Anti-alias checked.
Type your name.
If you have a long name use a smaller font size.
You can add a small butterfly too if you like.
Layers > Merge > Merge visible layers.
Use your lasso tool. Point to Point > Add > Feather 1 > Smoothing 0 > Anti-alias checked.
Select the butterfly first.
Select the dark border of the flower.
Piece by piece. Because you use add, PSP 8, 9
and 10 will keep the previous selections.
In 7 hold shift.
Magic wand >
Feather 0 > Tolerance to 20.
Click the dark parts inside your font.
Zoom in to see if you got everything selected.
Duplicate this layer twice in your layer palette.
You have 3 layers. Activate the top layer (= blue).
Adjust > Add noise/.... > Add noise.
Noise to 30 on layer 2 and 35 on layer 3.
Save as dreama-tag.psp.
Animation Shop doesn't recognize the PSP 8 and 9 extensions
*.pspimage so you have to save as PSP 6 or 7 file. Do it like this:
Save as > Click options and choose save as PSP 7 or 6 compatible file.
Open Animation Shop (AS) .
Get your file, you have 3 frames.
Click Ctrl A to select all frames.
Rotate your base with 90 degrees.
Look at the sample below.
Of course there are lots of possibilities.
