When you get them where you want them,
For each tube layer do this:

Repeat these steps for the other two tube layers.

Doing this one at a time,
Highlight one tube layer that is visible.
Go to Image in your toolbar.
Then go to Adjustments.
Choose Black & White.
Use the default settings.
Click Ok.
Repeat this for the other two visible layers.
Unhide the second CU tube layers.
Again, do this one layer at a time.
Go to the upper left corner of your Layer Palette.
Click the drop down arrow next to the word Normal.
Choose Lighten.
Leave the Opacity set at 100%.
(Upper right corner of Layer Palette.)
Do this for the other two CU tube layers.
Place a drop shadow on all layers
except the CU tube layers.

Add a drop shadow.
Duplicate this layer.
Rotate 180 degrees.
Place this layer on the right side of tag.
If you like, you can move some of your kisses
on top of your wordart layer.
Make a new layer.
Type your name on the taggie.
I used Black.
Stroke 3, Outside, color fbabe2.
Place a drop shadow.
MOST IMPORTANT!!
You must now do this:
Put the artist's name, website, and your license number
of the tube you used on the siggy!!
Add your name (ie: Designed by Your Name) behind this info.
Make sure this info is legible and clearly seen.
If you don't want to animate, Save as PNG.
YOU'RE DONE!!
(If you want to maintain your layers
Always Save as PSD first.
Then you can save it as a PNG.
When doing both these steps
It is important to change the title of the tag.
Example:
When I Save as PSD,
I always name the tag what I want.
Then, when saving as a PNG,
I add the number 1 behind the name of the tag.
Like this:
Kiss Me Hard, Save as PSD
Kiss Me Hard1, Save as PNG
Otherwise, your PNG will overwrite your PSD
Merging your tag into one layer only.)
**TO ANIMATE**
Hide the second and third layers
of your duplicated layers
in the Layer Palette.
(Should be seven layers that are duplicated.)
Open the Animation Window.
Set the time for .2.
Show all visible layers in the first frame.
Click the square button, next to the trash can,
in the animation window.
This will duplicate the first animation frame.
Go over to your Layer Palette.
Hide the first layers of all duplicated layers.
Unhide the second layers.
Go back to the animation window.
Open a new animation frame.
Go to Layer Palette.
Hide all second layers of duplicated layers.
Unhide the third layers.
Now back to the animation window again.
Duplicate the second animation frame.
This will now be your third frame.
Move frame 4 in the animation window
over between frames 2 and 3.
Click Play.
If you like what you see...
Save as PSD. Then Save for Web & Devises.
YOU'RE DONE!
I hope you had fun with this tut
and that you can use the fading technique
in other taggies you create!
HUGS!

- Hi Ya'll! I'm Savage and I'd like to welcome you to Redneck Tuts. These are not your ordinary tuts, as they are geared toward those of us that don't have "working knowledge" of Photoshop or PSP. My tuts are all done in PS. They are designed to show you different techniques that you may not know. I hope you learn something that you can use in your creations in the future. Please, just have fun and put your own spin on these tuts. Be original and shine! Love Ya! ♥
