Save A Horse
Supplies
needed:
1. Open a new transparent image W: 650 H: 450 pixels 2. Duplicate the frames named SNT_Cowgirl_Frame1 and close out the original. And resize it to 300 X 300 pixels. And copy it. Now paste it onto your canvas as a new layer. And move it to the left side of the canvas. Now duplicate it and go to image ~ mirror. 3. Take your magic wand tool and click on the inside of the frame on the left (make sure that layer is active), and then go to selections ~ modify ~ expand by 15. 4. Add a new raster layer, and flood fill it with white. Now add another new raster layer, and copy the mist included in the supply folder and paste it into the selection, select none. Now change the blend mode to luminance (L) and lower the opacity to about 46. Now merge down. Move the frame above the merged layer. Then merge down. 5. Make the frame on the right active, Take your magic wand tool and click on the inside of the frame and then go to selections ~ modify ~ expand by 15. And add a new raster layer. And then flood fill it with white as well. Select none. And move the frame above this layer. Merge down. 6. Now duplicate the SNT_Cowgirl_WineBarrel and resize it to 25% and copy it, and paste it onto your canvas as a new layer. And move it to the bottom right, and duplicate it, and then go to image ~ mirror. And it will place it on the left frame. Now move it so it is above the left frame layer. Do this with the SNT_Cowgirl_Hat2 as well. 7. So as of right now if you look at your layer pallet you should have a (R)hat, (R)barrel, (R)frame, (L)hat, (L)barrel, (L)frame, blank layer. Hide the bottom 4 layers, and merge visible. Now hide the top layer, and unhide the frame and the hat and the barrel and merge visible. 8. Now unhide your layers, you should only have 3 now. Activate your top layer ( which should be the frame on the right) and duplicate the SNT_Cowgirl_WordArt3 and resize it to 196 X 61 and copy it and paste it as a new layer, and move it to the top right ( see my tag as an example). Add your text and water mark. Merge down. 9. Now grab your Pick Tool, and make the left frame active, now… press your SHIFT key on your keyboard and hold it, place the cursor at the top right corner, and pull down, this will bring that corner down. You don’t want to bring it down to much, and do the same with the bottom right corner but bring it up. When you are happy with the look of it, do these same steps with the right frame but the left top and left bottom corner. You want the two sides to match up, because you are going to “connect” them. The look we are going for is a picture frame as if it was sitting on a table or shelf. 10. Now copy your tube and paste it as a new layer, and move it to the left. 11. Merge visible once you have it looking the way you want it. Now you can either copy it and paste it over to Animation Shop or you can save it as a .psp file then open it in AS. This all depends on the version that you are using. I know that in PSP XI if you copy and paste it to Animation shop you will get a white background. 12. Once you have the tag over in Animation Shop, Open the horse animation. And duplicate your tag so you have 5 frames. Now make the animated horse active, and go to edit ~ select all ~ edit ~ copy. And now make your tag active, and go to edit ~ select all ~ edit ~ paste ~ into selected frame, and place it where you want it on/in the frame on the right. Animate it and you are done!
