Open
the object you've downloaded, and store it (if you want to use it
another time) in your Easy Palette/Libraries (white hand). I've
stored mine under My Library (red arrow), so I just had to
double-click it (1), to get it onto my background image.
If you have the object on your working space, and not stored
inside the EP, copy it (Ctrl+C) and paste it (Ctrl+V) on our back-
ground image.
Right click the object now (on the back- ground image)/Ungroup.
Activate the white rectangle, go to Edit/Fill/Gradient and fill it
with the same Magic Gradient as before.
Go to Photo/Blur/Gaussian Blur and set the Radius to 20.
Deactivate the rectangle (return key).

|
|
 |
Activate
the two borders (red arrows), go to Edit/Fill/Image (white
arrow)/File, and find (white hand) the gold fill, you've down-
loaded and unzipped.
Deactivate. |

Open
the tube01 (1) and copy it (Ctrl+C). Activate our main picture
(2), and paste (Ctrl+V) the tube on it. Right click the tube/
Properties/Position&Size (white hand)/ Position:
Left: 294 (red arrow)
Top: 40 (white arrow)
Click OK and close the tube.
Open the tube02, copy and past on our main picture as we did with
the other tube.
Right click the tube/Properties/Position &
Size/Position: Left: 13/Top: 53.
Close the tube.
|
|
|
|
Now
your picture should look like my screen- shot to the left.
Keep the tube02 activated ... as you can see that I did, ... choose
the Pick Tool (white hand)/Arrange, and Send to Back (white
arrow).
Keep the tube activated/right click/ Duplicate, and use one more
time the Pick Tool/Arrange/Send to Back command.
|
|
|
|
Open
the Layer Manager (white hand), and yours should look like mine.
Activate the last tube (red arrow), and go to Edit/Fill/ Gradient
and fill it with the same Magic Gradient as before. Now the lines
from the background underneath the tube won't shine through as
much as before.
This step is optional ... I liked the look after this step better
for my taggie, but it's always a kind of taste - and not to forget
... it also depends on the tube you use, and on the background
fill.
Add your name, or some text, Merge All. |

it! A stylish Sig Tag ... made with PI
and different filters. HAVE FUN!!!
