My Supplies

This included the animation I used

to make my background. 

The original animation is made by Lovey

where she offers many fabulous animations so check her out

                            

Let's Begin! 

Open my template and shift D.

Close original.

Delete info layer.

I have done most of the work for you but if using 

different tube then you may want to colorize to match your tube.

In the layers pallet you will see that there are layers that are black

these are where you are going to add your tube 

so lets begin at the bottom and go up

On the layer named tubes background you need

to paste your tube several time at various sizes and move so background is filled

This is totally up to you how you place them but feel free to use

my tag as a guide if desired

Once you have the tubes placed how you like merge them together

Select the gradient heart layer and then float

Now go back to tubes background and right click layer in layers pallet

and promote to layer

Move this layer above the gradient heart layer

Change opacity to 35
Apply Penta - Color Dots  distance 5

Once you have that done now go back to tubes
background and apply scanlines using light color

Now on the layer that says tube goes here paste tube and place it where you want it

Once you have that done you can now add your name and also your copyright info

Now it's time to animate

Close everything above the heart frame then copy merge and paste into AS.

Ctrl L until you have 15 layers

Open the animation and Ctrl A and drag to your tag

View the animation on tag to make sure that it's right if not click go back and try again

Once it's correct go back to PSP and close layers that are open and

the open layers that are closed

Copy merge and paste into AS and Ctrl L until there are

at least 15 frames and then Ctrl A and drag to tag and line up where it goes

Save as Gif 

and that's it!!!
