For Frames 2 and 4 you’ll want to copy the image into the animation twice. Then you’ll have to copy your image (make sure to merge or copy merged) into the next frame of the animation in Animation Shop. You can browse your tubes from PSP, resize and copy and paste your sparkle to the image as a new layer. PreviewĪlternatively you can copy your image as a new animation into Animation Shop but leave it in PSP. We want the best quality so keep the “slider bar” at the top of the menu. Go to the “File” menu and select “Save.” Choose your filename and location then click “Save.” The optimization menu will open. Here you can change settings so it looks inidefinitely or so that it only plays a certain number of times. When you have adjusted your image to your liking and are ready to savew, check to make sure the image loops – that is plays repeatedly – by right clicking the animation, selecting “Animation Properties” and clicking on the “Looping” tab. I also changed the display time of frame 1 to 250 so the repetion of the animation wouldn’t become annoying. Right click Frame 3 and select “Frame Properties.” Change the “Display Time” from 10 to about 50. I like to have my “middle” sparkle frame have a slightly longer duration, ie it appears longer than the other frames. By pasting the slightly larger sparkle in the frame between 2 smaller sparkle frames, it gives the impression of growing in intensity, then fading back out. Click “Animation” from the “View” menu to preview. You now have 4 frames and we’re almost done. Then right click Frame 3 and select “Paste” then select “After Current Frame” (or press CTRL + SHIFT + L). Right Click Frame 2, the first sparkle frame and select “Copy” (or press CTRL + C). Try to get the placement exactly where it was with the first sparkle. (By undoing the first resize we preserve image quality.) Once more, drag your sparkle but this time drop it in Frame 3. Then, resize to a height about 20px, just slightly larger than our original sparkle. Select “Undo” once more and your image will return to its original size. Now, go back to your sparkle animation (which will now be empty) and select “Undo Drag” from the “Edit” menu (or press CTRL + Z). I’m placing it over the dot on the “i.” It may be a little tricky to drag it to the exact position you want it, so play around a little. Make sure not to close “Animation 1” though! PreviewĬlick and drag your sparkle from Animation 2 to your original animal. At this point you can close or minimize the “Browse” pane. It will be a little difficult to see so we’ll be zooming when we work but even then it will look blurry. It’s a little big so resize it to about 15px in height. Previewĭoubleclick the sparkle you want and it will open as a new animation. Select the “File” menu then his “Browse” and, in the left frame, search for your Tubes folder where you downloaded the tubes. Solid coloured sparkles look a bit tacky, in my opinion. I like to use plain white/silver sparkles usually. Now we need to open up the sparkle tube we want to use. Each time your image appears is a different frame. Right click on your new animation and select “Duplicate Selected.” Repeat until your image appears 3 times. Right click the Animation Shop workspace and select “Paste As New Animation” (or hit CTRL + V) and your image will appear in the workspace. Right click your image and select “Copy” (or press CTRL + C) then open Animation Shop. PreviewĪfter your customizations are complete, merge any layers by going to “Layers” menu, “Merge”, and select “Merge All.” Preview Text with an “i” or “j” or other letter which has a dot is especially nice for adding sparkles. Applying a shiny bevel can often make a sparkle appear to “belong” more than regular text so I also did that, and added a drop shadow for effect. This includes, text, brushes, blending/layering, background changes, etc.
TUTORIALS FOR PAINT SHOP PRO 9 PSP
When working with animations, everything but the animation itself must be completed in PSP first. Since a sparkle or glint would normally appear on a shiny object, I chose an image featuring a shiny subject and added my text, in PSP, to that. The first example we’re going to look at is adding sparkles to text. For versions 10 and higher look for a “Tubes” folder in My Documents.
TUTORIALS FOR PAINT SHOP PRO 9 SOFTWARE
For versions 9 and lower look for a “Tubes” folder in C:Program FilesJasc software IncPaint Shop Pro. Tubes must go in your tubes folder and the location will vary depending upon which version of PSP you have. Save your sparkles of choice to your computer, unzip if necessary. Sparkle tubes can be downloaded from here here here or here Before you can begin you need to obtain the sparkles.
