About me

Hello and welcome to my blog! I am Vivienne, living in the UK and married with a son who now lives in Perth, Australia and a daughter who has given me two gorgeous grandsons! Paint Shop has been my hobby for more years than I can remember and I love making tags. I have always loved doing tutorials written by others and a couple of years ago started writing them myself. As well as tag tutorials, I also have a Tips and Tricks page where you will find tutorials on basic Paint Shop techniques. I hope you enjoy my blog and have fun with my tutorials. Please be sure also to check out the Tag Gallery and see some of the awesome results to the tutorials!

ANIMATION:

Starting at the top, close off all layers down to and including the tube and
merge visible, close the merged layer, open the top layers and again merge
visible.  Open animation 05 in Animation Shop and note it has 14 frames.  Copy
the bottom layer of your tag and paste that also in Animation Shop " as a new
animation" then duplicate it until you have 14 frames the same as the
animation.    Select all the animation frames and copy them, click on your tag
layer and again select all the frames, right click, "paste into selected
frame" and paste the animation on the tag.  Now copy the top layer of your tag,
paste it in Animation Shop and again duplicate it until you have the 14 frames,
copy these frames as before and paste on top of the animated tag.  Again, select
all the frames, go to Animation - Frame Properties and change the display time
to 20.  Run your tag through the Optimisation Wizard and save as a gif.
