1. Open a new image 500 x 500 transparent.
2. Open your tube. Choose a light and a dark color from them and then minimize your tube for later.
3. Get your rectangle tool ready with the dark in the foreground and light in the background. 4 line width.
4. Using your tool make a rectangle. (see my finished for an idea on the size) When happy with the size please go to the layer pallette, right click and change to a raster layer.
5. Take your magic wand and select the inside of your square. Go to effects, flaming pear, transline.
6. Keep your rectangle selected. Take your tubes (at least 3) and copy and paste them on your canvas. Resize them as necessary to fit into the rectangle. Move them into the position you would like. Selections, invert. Hit the delete key on each of the tube layers. This will delete everythingexcept what is in the rectangle.
7. Close out your bottom layer and rectangle layer and merge visible. Unselect. Duplicate your tube layers 4 times so you have 5 tube layers total. At the top layer you want to keep the opacity at 100%, go down to the next layer and change the opacity to 75%, next down 50%, next layer 25%, next layer 10%.
8. Go to your rectangle layer and duplicate this layer. Image, flip.
9. Take your pick tool and move it so that the rectangles just barely touch. Ok, Take your pick tool, hold ctrl down and take one of the bottom parts of the rectangle and pull down a little so that it goes down at an angle.
10. Ok, get your main tube and copy and paste it. Place it on the lower rectangle the best that you can. Resize it if necessary. Add a drop shadow of your choice.
11. Go to your bottom layer and flood fill it with a matching color.
12. Ok, add your copyrights, and your text and convert it to a raster layer. Add a drop shadow to your text and then merge those levels down with the tube. So your main tube layer should have the tube, copyright and your text on it.
13. Close off all your layers but your 2 rectangles and your bottom layer. merge visible.
14. so you should have a tube layer (with your copyright and text), 5 smaller tubes and your rectangles. On your bottom layer duplicate it 4 times and then repeat this with your main tube layer.
15. Hide all layers but one main tube, one smaller tube and one rectangle. The bottoms of all should be open. Click on teh bottom layer and merge visible. Then close that off.
16. open the next one up on all layers and merge visible. Repeat this process till all your layers have 1 main tube layer, 1 small tubes and 1 rectangle layer. Open all your layers. you should have 5 of them :)
17. Save as a pspimage and open animation shop.
18. Open your saved graphic. Hit Ctrl-a to select all frames.
19. Right click on the blue bar and choose frame properties.
20. Change it to 50 or what you think is best.
