Let's Begin!

I'll show you how to do the animation first so that you use the effect on other tags should you want too.

Ok open up your tube of choice in psp.

Copy and paste as a new image rename this layer original and then duplicate the layer so you have two.rename your new layer first warp.

Grab your warp brush. It's near the bottom of your tools sometimes hidden behind the warp mesh

Set it with these settings

On your top tube layer. position your brush here

Push her hip very slightly up and to the left

Then position your brush here

Push her hip left and very slightly down.

Click the tick on the tool options for the warp to take.

Duplicate your warped tube layer and rename it second warp.

Do the same again this time moving it a little bit further.

Ok now you have 3 layers - original, first warp and second warp

Duplicate your first warp layer and drag it above your second warp layer. This is so the animation is smooth

Save it as a .pspimage or psd (remember if .pspimage it needs to be psp 7 compliant to open in A/s)

Open in A/s and view your animation. lol I've had some real shockers so don't get discouraged if its not quite right.

I've kept my speed a 0.10 second per frame but you might like to slow it down a little so the poor girl doesn't do herself a mischief!

To do this select all frames (CRTL A) Then click the Alt and return key and change the speed the higher the numbers the slower the animation.

Rest of the Tag

Ok back to the rest of the tag.

In psp open a white canvas 500px by 500 px

Add a new raster and pick a med/dark colour from your tube. I used #c5586e then flood your layer.

Layers - Masks find jojogrungycircle4 and used these settings

Merge group

Add a new raster and flood with a lighter colour from you tube. I've used #f6c2cc

Layers - masks and find jojogrungyhearttwin and used the same settings as before.

Merge group

Ok now to add some noise. We have 4 frame layers so duplicate your heart mask layer till you have 4

Add noise to all the heart mask layers

Adjust - Add/remove noise - add noise and use these settings

Copy and paste your wordart as a new layer - I've supplied this to make it things a little easier. Feel free to recolour as necessary I used deseryl font
which I've included in the zip in case you'd like to make your own.

Add your name and copyrights

Getting it over to A/s

Ok now to get this all over to A/s. This is gonna be a bit awkward to explain so bare with me.

First of copy and paste your name layer over to A/s

Hide your name layer. Also hide 3 of your heart mask layers

Edit - Copy - Copy merged

paste into A/s as new image

Back to psp and hide your revealed heart mask layer and unhide the next one.

Edit - Copy - Copy merged

paste in A/s after current frame

Do the same till you have all 4 frames over to A/s.

Putting it all together.

Now we get our original wiggle tube onto our background

Select all on both animations (crtl A)

Click the propogate paste button

Pull your first frame of your wiggle tube into the first frame of your background anim

They should all go into the frames!

Woohoo we are nearly there!

Finally we need to get your name on - Select all (crtl A)

Drag your name into the first frame of your tag and position!

IT should have gone into all the frames if it hasn't crtl z and try again

Test your animation and marvel at that wiggle !lol

Your done!

I would love to see your result, so please show me your wiggle!
