*********************** 

open a new image at 750px by 65opx with a transparent background.

add a new raster layer and flood fill the layer with #000000.

now apply the mask with default settings.

right click on the mask layer to merge the mask group.

now open the starrysky element.

copy and paste (C/P) it as a new layer above the mask.

now open the frame2 and C/P it at 100% as a new layer above the starrysky.

now open the tube and copy the tube with the background.

paste it as a new layer below the frame2.

copy the tube only layer and paste it as a new layer above the frame2 layer.

now use your magic wand tool to click inside the frame.

expand selection by 5 and invert.

hit delete on the lower tube layer and select none.

*you can choose to erase out the moon thats on the tube or keep it. I erased it.*

easy peasy!

now that all the basics are done, add any elements, text and tubes.

don't forget to add artist credit and license info.

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! =)
