A tutorial by Mar © 2004.

What you need:
PSP 8 or 9Download a 30 day trial here.
 ZIP with materials download here.
I tubed the revue girls myself.
EyeCandy 3.1. download here.
Choose one of the tubes and  open
in PSP.
Open the font
and minimize to your taskbar.
You will see the font in your text tool.

Save often.
Let's go
. Good luck.....

Open a new image 300 X 350 > Transparent.
Fill with #fee9dd.

Open  MD-Revue-girl.psp and copy.
Edit > Paste > Paste as a new layer.

Effects > Plugins > Eye Candy > Squint to 20.
Apply.

Edit > Resize to 115% > All layers unchecked.

Paste MD-Revue-girl.psp again.

With move a little to the bottom, so we will have room for our text.

Close foreground color and set background color to black.

Click and use an elegant font.
I used ChaseCallasSH. It's in the ZIP.
B of Bold > Size 36 > Stroke 0,0 > Anti-alias checked.

Type your text.

Convert to raster (PSP all versions).

Image rotate > Free rotate> 25 Left > All layers unchecked.

Effects > 3D-effects > Drop shadow.

If you like to type a second line you have to repeat all steps.

If your text is finished.......
Merge all layers
flatten.

Add borders > 5 Pixels > Black.

Select    the border.
Fill with #b9282f.

Effects > 3D-effects > Inner bevel.

Effects > 3D-effects > Same drop shadow.
And again Horiz. and Vert. to - 5.

Add borders > 20 Pixels > Black.

Repeat  with width 6.

Promote background layer.

Magic wand    (tolerance to 25 and feather 2).
Select some dark red pieces in the feathers (see screenshot ).

Layer > Duplicate.
Do this Twice.

You have three layers, standing on the top layer (=blue).

Adjust > Add noise/.... > Add noise.

Repeat this step on layer 2 and 3 but change the
amount of noise to 20 (layer 2) and 25 (layer 3).

Save as Revue.psp.

Animation Shop doesn't recognize *.pspimage from
 PSP 8  and 9 so we save as a PSP 7 or 6 file. Like this:
Save as > Click options and save as a *.psp 6 or 7 compatible file.

Open  Animation Shop (AS) and follow the screenshots.
You will see 3 frames. If it looks like one.... scroll to the right.
Click Ctrl A to select your frames.
