(Before you Animate your Banner)
Now you can create a unique AV if you like
But this is what i did...
*Close out the border layers and the Main tube
*Copy Merge all the visible layers...paste onto your AV canvas
*RS 90% adjust to your liking...Highlight Raster 1...Select All
Image/crop to selection.
*Add the same border you made for your Banner tag
Add your name, Copyright info and Watermark
to both canvases.
(You can stop right here if you do not want to animate)
Animating your Banner:
Find your falling leaf Animation and open it in your animation program of choice
the one i am using first is 112 frames...
*Copy your merged layer over to you Animation program and duplicate
the layers to match the leaf animation you will be using
*Activate the Animation you will be using
Edit/Select All/Copy
*Activate you banner tag Edit/Select All/Paste/Into selected frames
place where you like...mine will be behind the window
* Go back to your PSP program and Close out the merged layer
Copy Merge these layer and paste to your animation program
For for this layer make sure propagate paste is selected
Edit/Select All/Copy and then Edit/Select All/Paste/Into selected frames
onto your banner tag.
You should now have a gorgeous animated banner tag!
Just save your tag as a .gif and you are done.
