For this tutorial you will need:

Psp 7
(due to the difference in the wave effects)

These tubes:
butterfly
Rose

This font:
Dynasty Font

**Install the tubes and the font!!**


Open up a new image 500*200 pixels with a transparent background.
(The size of the new image depends on how long your name is...)
Select the text tool and add text with these settings...



Make sure you picked your favourite gradient. *smile*
Now with the text still floating go to effects/ artistic effects/ brush strokes
Now use the settings below, but when setting the colours use the dropper and
pick the darkest colour in your gradient.



Deselect (press ctrl + d)
Now add a new raster layer (layers / new raster layer)
Then select the text tool but this time set line width to 6
in the tool options box. Then add text with these settings...
Once again when choosing the colour pick the darkest ones in your gradient
using the dropper tool.



Now go to effects/ texture effects / blinds.
Then add with width : 2
Opactity : 65
and horizontal ticked.
Now as for the colour pick a colour that is about the same as the one
used on the text only slightly darker.
Now you text is still selected so go to selections/ modify / contract and
contract with one. Then go to selections / invert.
Go to effects / geometric effects / wave and add wave with both amplitudes set to 1
and both wavelengths set to 5.

Now move this waved layer to the bottom (layers/ arrange/ send to bottom.)
Deselect.
Then use the mover tool to move the layers into place.
Now you should have something like this...



Add a new raster layer then add the tubes where you want them with
the scale 25%
Then go to layers / merge / merge visible.
Then go to effects/ 3d effects/ drop shadow add with the following settings...



Use the crop tool and crop then save as .jpg
You're now done !

Hope you had fun!
