Open
a New Image: Canvas color: 115/58/13 and Size: 300x300
Pixels. I used the color of my homepage - set the Background
color (white hand) to the same color as you're using for your new
Image.
Choose the Path Tool and draw a circle, approx. size:
244 Pixels, Color: White and Mode 2D Object.
Right click/Align/Center Both, right click/Convert
Object Type/From Path-Path to Image (red arrow).

Edit/Fill/Gradient
(1)/Magic
Gradient (2). Choose Mode 10 (white hand)), and click the Edit
button
(red arrow). In the Palette Ramp Editor choose the
first palette (3). Right click the small squares in the
preview window, choose Change Color (white arrow) and change the colors of
all the squares so the fit your tube.
I've used this colors for my tube ...
#2478A9, #CBEDFF, #52B3E8, #3B728F and #7FCEF9.
Merge All.

Effect/FunHouse/Twister:
75.
Effect/FunHouse (red arrow)/SunRaze (white arrow) and use
these settings (1):
255/239/0/0/0/0/0/0.
Your screenshot might look different, since I'm using Filters
Unlimited 2 - but the settings are the same anyway.
Click Apply. |
|
 |
Adjust/Expand
Canvas/Expand all sides equally: 100 Pixels and Expand color:
115/58/13 (or the color of your choice).
Before you use the next filter, check that your Back- ground Color
(white hand) is the same as the color of your canvas.
Effect/MuRa's Meister/Pole Transform, and use these settings:
0/200/100/86/0/200/0 + don't tick any box (red X) and use Radius
Mode (red arrow).
Click OK.
|
|
 |
Activate
your tube (1), copy (Ctrl+C) the tube, activate the main
picture (2) and paste (Ctrl+V) the copy on it.
Right click/Properties/Position & Size (3)/and go to Size.
Check that you have ticked the box Keep aspect ratio
(red arrow) and change the Height to 340 (white hand).
Now we can change the
position of the tube:
Left: 221 and Top: 91 (white arrows).
Click OK and close the original tube (1).
Keep the tube on the main picture activated.
|
|
|
Right
click/Shadow and use these settings:
Black + 4.altern (red arrow) + 2/2/70/100/10.
Click OK.
Add a name as you wish, Merge All, and your Sig Tag is finished.
