 This tut was written by Jenn, June 2008 Any likeness to other tuts is purely accidental.It was written for those who have an understanding of PSP. This tut is dedicated to a wonderful woman and artist, Amanda Fontaine. Her cute piggy's inspired this tut. I am glad she shares her art with the world. she defiantly makes it a prettier place.. Supplies Needed: PSP I am using version 9 Tubes of choice. Mine are copyright Amanda Fontaine if you wish to use her work you must get her work from A.M.I 3 Fonts of choice. One thick one thing and scripty and one that works well kinda small. Optional Filter:Mura's Meister/cloud Supplies include: mask by by Amanda Fontaine used and supplied with permission. Do not change file name and not to be used for any other tuts without permission. Supplies HERE Lets Start 1. Open a new 500x500 canvas flood fill with color(s) or pattern of choice. Add a new raster layer and flood fill with a darker color of choice. Apply AFmask1. Go to layers/load mask from disk. 2. If you did any color and want the swirl then set your foreground and background to colors of choice then go to effects/plug ins/mura's meister/cloud default settings hit ok. 3. To get the swirl make sure the layer you just did the clouds is on is highlighted go to effects/distortion effects/twirl 720 degrees/ok. Make sure this layer is behind the mask. 4. Paste and position your pig tubes. 5. Choose a thickish font I used Veranda or Impact and in the rectangle in the middle type your text. I typed the word oink! and lowered it to 50%. 6. Next choose a scripty type font and type out your name. 7. Choose a font that works well when smallish. I am using cosmic sans. This is if you want the circle text around the tag if you do then. Go to your present shapes and find your ellipse shape. Set your foreground to a bright color not in your tag and background to null. Line width 5 is good. Make a circle all the way around the outside of the mask's edge. Once happy set your back and fore ground to the color you want your text to be.Set your font size and create as a vector. Go up to the edge of your circle and you will see a funny A with a curved line under it, click and type out your text all the way around. You can then position with your mouse. In your layer pallet click the little + by your vector and the whole layer will open up. You will see your text and your ellipse, click on the eye next to ellipse to hide it then click your vector layer and convert to a raster layer. Your text will then stay on the curve. 8. Add your copyright and tagger info and any watermarks. 9. Save and a png or jpeg. Thank you for trying my tut. Here is another sample. This one has pattern instead of swirl.
