***************************************
this is just a matter of rearranging the elements.
easy peasy! =)
open and resize the following elements:
element12 - 10%
element21 - 10%
element29 - 5%
element37 - 25%
element43 - 44%
first, open a new raster image with a transparent background.
650px by 650px.
copy/paste element37 as a new layer.
add a new raster layer below the frame.
open element43 and copy.
on your working canvas, select all on your new raster layer.
paste into selection, select none.
add your tube below your frame layer.
using your point to point selection tool,
make the following selection.
*CLICK THE IMAGE FOR A LARGER PREVIEW*
(don't mind the grey layer below the tube.)
invert your selection and hit delete on your tube layer
and the element43 layer.
select none.
copy and paste the other elements above the frame layer
and arrange them to your liking.
for element12, use your pick tool to pull it in closer around the frame.
now on the bottom layer, use your circle preset shape to make a circle.
hold down the shift key while drawing out the circle.
select symmetric shape on your preset shapes flyout menu on the toolbar.
right click on your vector layer and select edit mode.
select white for both background and foreground.
convert to raster layer, float/defloat/invert it.
add a new raster layer above it.
open up paper01 and copy it.
paste it into selection on the new raster layer.
select none. delete the white circle.
now for the text. You can write the word "Lust" or anything else you'd like to use.
make this your foreground color: #7b2e48
background color: #c2c2c2
use the following gradient settings:
Angle: 45
Repeats: 1
Invert: unchecked
Style: Linear
apply whatever text you want and you're done!
don't forget to add drop shadows and tube credits.
when you're all done, copy special > copy merged.
paste as a new image and use your magic wand tool to select outside the tag.
invert selection and crop to selection.
that will get rid of any extra space that you don't need.
thanks for trying my tutorial! =)
