Part 2

Open Animation Shop.

Click on File>Animation Wizard,

*click on: Same Size as the first image frame, Next>Transparent>Centered in Frame,

Next>Yes, repeat the animation indefinitely,

and set the frame dispaly at 23,

then add BouncingName,

Next and then click Finish.

You should now have 3 frames.

Click on one frame and transport it back to PSP,

add a layer and find the tube that you

wish to use but,*do not merge.*

With the new layer active, click CTRL C (copy)

and then go back to AS and click CTRL V (paste)

you should now have the tube on its own layer.)

Close PSP, (when it ask if you want

to update, click "no.")

Back to AS, in the upper part of your screen

click on "Toggle Onionskin Preview" button.

(This will let you see where you placed the tube,

in the previous frame.)

Now click on your tube to activate.

Click>Edit>Copy and then click on frame 1

of your name and then

Edit>Paste into selected frame.

(Place the tube above the name,

not touching, but in the center.)

Now activate the second frame,

and again Edit>Paste (the tube)

into selected frame.

Drop the tube down so that it is resting

right on top of the name and make sure

that it is straight down from the first

placement of the tube,

(using the preview as your guide.)

Then do the same with frame 3.

Click on View Animation to see if you like

the speed of the bounce.

If not, you can click

Edit>Select all>Animation>Frame Properties

and change the speed.

Now you're ready to crop and save!

Or you can export all frames back to PSP

at this time, to add a drop shadow.

V>>> -6

H>>> -6

O>>33

blur>>> 5.9

Color: #808080

Next, click on File>SaveAs>Name it

BouncingName2

(make sure that you have applied the

dropshadow to all layers and they are

all visible before saving.)

Now back to AS>File>Animation Wizard and

using the same settings as before,

only this time click on "opaque"

and add the image>BouncingName2.

Wooohooo...

you are now ready to crop and save!

(If you wish to resize, don't forget to export

all 3 frames to PSP and sharpen each frame,

before saving.)

Congratulations you are now bouncing!!

I hope that you are pleased with your

new creation and have enjoyed this tutorial.
