I've added a 2nd method for adding glitter to a picture. I think the 2nd one is much easier.
I've got the tutorial for adding glitter to an animation in the works. What would you like to learn how to do next?
Shady, thanks so much for your tuts..I attempt PSP at times and know there is so much to learn. Whatever you choose to post here, I will be sure to read :)
Thanks again
i would love to learn the reflection pool feature if you know what i mean if not i will go see if i can find a sample
(https://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e231/macktami95/ReneeDolphTAG.gif)
something along these line would be wonderful or if you could figure out how she did it and could make me one with my name TAMI on it would be wonderful and greatly appreciated
Thats the one i want Tami! Can u make me one with Kris i would be forever greatful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)
yeah well see i found it first showed it to you now you want it lol and i dont even know if she can make one i was just showing it to her becasue of the water reflection in the letter but it would be wonderful if she could figure out how to make it so :P
I'm sure I can figure it out. It just has several layers and animations. The steps should be alot like the St. Patty Dog Globe I made.
The reflection/ripple is done is done with the visman filter lakeside reflection that was downloaded in the making your own glitter files tutorial. You can find it under Effects ... Plug-Ins ... VM Natural in PSP after you've downloaded the filter.
If anyone is having trouble and getting an error message with the visman or any other filters when you try to use them. Let me know. There are several fixes. Just need to know the error message.
yup i got an error message of course who else would it be but me i have more problems lol
my error is saying
psp was unable to load the requested plug in filter plug in may not be installed properly or may be missing files ( plugin; lakeref.8bf)
i wanted to see if i could figure it out i found a good dolphin for the animation too bummer
Shady try this plug in... it works for me ---->>> Almathera Plug-in Collection (free plugins)
http://www.mways.co.uk/prog/plugin.php
download and unzip the entire contents into your Plugin folder in whatever program your using.
ok this is the tut for that sig with the jumping dolphin i found it lol wooohooo
http://www.anycities.com/iceriley/tutorials/dolphin_tutorial.htm
she has the downloads that you need and tells you step by step
Good Look'n Out!!......... man-o-man... u did some awesome surfin....Great tutorial!!
mack,
I'm sending the files you need to homer. It's the visman filter and 3 dll files. Look in your visman folder. If you see lakeref.8bf there, you don't need to redownload visman. If it's not there download it again from the one I'm sending Homer. Also, download the plug-in zip and the dll zip to your Windows/System Folder. Some computers have them already. Mine didn't and I had to get them.
Shady... Im workin with Visman and VM Natural... both program when u try to convert the "name to animation" come up with error message... quote: -- Paint Shop Pro was unable to load the requested plug-in-filter....etc statin I need laker8bf.... etc... I see that file in both program... apparently u came across same error message...
What dll do I need... I made the signature 3xs usin almathera...but effects not what I want....
Psp is sayin program visman or vm natural did not install
Homer just uploaded the files that are needed to correct the error messages you are receiving.
Just download & unzip them into your C:/windows/system folder
ok.. I had unzipped them and put them in my psp "plugin" folder... ah haaaa.... ty... tryin it now
Ok.. Shady and Mack... I tried it... but needs improvement... gonna do it again.... "practice makes perfect" thank u for tellin me to put the dll in the "windows-system" folder...
TIP: To get your dolphin off speed ... change your frame properties .. the higher the number the slower the animation.
yeah... that was the first one I did.... I'm workin on the 2nd one... more changes... even use different sand... ty ... I saw the speed was fast........ dolphin on crack.. rofl
wow token he is really jumping loks good thou
make your back round clear transparent and will look fabulas O0 token
I dont get it... every time I merge-flatten... it change transparency to "white"... then I manually change each frame to transparent in PSP-Animation...and it still come out white........ I'm missin something in Lesson Transparency 101..... gotta go to "help" in PSP... something I'm doin wrong :(
i am so not crafty and understanding about certain thing im about to pull my hair out been trying to figure this out for almost an hour now help me please
i am trying to make another dolphin from another site that that has a bunch of tuts and i am stuck on how to do lol steps 4 and 5 and im sure i will have problems with the steps in the animation for the waves
here is the link if someone can take a look and give me a helping hand please
http://karenscreations.infinology.net/dolphintag.htm
Ok.. I got step five........ ... where exactly are u stuck........... Do you know where your wand is? Sorry if thats a silly question... jus tryin to see where ur stuck...
ok im stuck on step 4 to start with i dont know how to change the selected area to the color by using the numbers and then no clue how to do step 5
Ok.. in the top right corner of PSP 9 you will see a box that says "materials" you select background color... example now my top sq box is white... once you open that box...<by double clicking the color> down at the bottom you will see HTML... you create the color they want you to use by Highlighting the current HTML code to 839ccf.... those numbers jus represent color... its jus a color code
ok but i have psp 8 lol should have said that sry
ok nm mine is the same ok i changed the color
now how do i do step 5 thanks for helping
lol.. np... on PSP 8 your material box should be to your left... its a box that has primary colors... when you change a color you normally just click your material box... well... if they want to use a particular color... its easy to jus type the color code in........ so on PSP.. once you activate the color box..<material box> down at the bottom u will see HTML.. highlight the current color there and type in the color they want u to use
Ok..this is easy as step 4... because now u know where your material property box is... there are 3 tabs up the top... the middle tap is gradient
well i must be the dumbest person in the world because i am on the gradient tab and i have the foreground color right but i cant change the background to white help again please im so srrryy
No.. I think I'm the dumbest.. I was wonderin why I hadnt heard from u.. I keep refreshin... finally notice... rofl... dont laugh... we now on page 3... sorry.. I bet u been waitin a long time
Ok.. Im doin this project with u.. Im farther down the steps... I was tryin to do it in case u asked me a question... ..now the answer to your question.....
before you open the gradient box.......... look at the material property box.. u will see two squares usually they both are white if you have not changed them... since u have changed one to 8c9ccf the other box jus below it maybe white if you never changed your background box...... hold the mouse over it... it will say "background"
ok cool i just finished step 13 i hope i did it right took me a few to find that stuff used the help sec though lol
rofl... ok.. Im down to step 13 too... ok... I didnt want to say that earlier .. didnt wanna discourage you.. ur doin awesome... I truly mean it
Do you see where your palette is to move the bar to 80
under view palettes layers
and of course i dont have the text script that she used in the tut so trying to pic a different one lol
here u go... put it in your font folder http://www.fryfonts.com/free-font/137
ok i dled it now where am i putting to be able to use it in psp? sry brain dead tonight
itz a zip file... easiest way... is to go to windows... font... install font... retreive it from where u unzipped it
did or does your layer when your adding your text still have the ants marching around it mine does and im not sure if its suppose to i didn everything they way it said so far
I dont know why she said make another layer... I jus did mine on the dolphin original layer
I made sure I had background color set to 265ea6 and my forground 839ccf the use the font scriptina.. 36.. 0.0 and typed Dolphin.. tada..
ok now more problems lol only me
after i added my name i still have those ants marching around the tear drop and my name isnt solid
and i tried to save it like she said and went to animation and it says its not compatible grrrrrrrr
np... make sure u merge as she said.. when u save it... choose tag animation shop... its the second tag file from top
Lemme explain better... choose ... file... save as........ top box u will name the file........ second box below it is where you click a drop down will fall... scroll til u see "animation shop"... its a capatible psp file...... select it... and open Animation shop..... we are comin to the fun part
doh i cut that first frame like she said and it all went bye bye lol what happened on yours?
she disappeared... rofl.. so I went to edit... undo.................
I bet this is one pretty animation.... but mine is jumpin.. love the water effect........ but it looks like my first pottery lesson........ I was aimin for a vasssse..... and ended up with a meaaassss... still lol... ok.. lemme show u this measssss... but I will work on it tomorrow and redo it...but will show u what it came out to be
omg.......... I am dyin laughin her... i did not spell a bad word...but when they censored it... it lookz like I said something very very nasty......... I spelled p... o... t.......... t.e..r..y
lmao mine is jumpy also its that first frame there is no animation on it thats y it needs to go making it brake the flow but here is mine
(https://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e231/macktami95/tamidolphinanimated.gif)
omg... I'm have turned 3 shades red and my side is hurtin from laughin so hard... omg... Homer.. Mayhem.. Oscar.. someone hurry and fix that before my dear forum friends think I am bad.... ....
ok well that didnt work out good its tiny and no animation what the heck
I dont want everyone to die laughin...but test1 lookz like mess1... i will redo it tomorrow
Merge Visible instead of Merge all flatten will fix the problem

Find in psp 8 where you see the big red(forground) and white(background) squares are in the image above. When you click on them, a box will open up. It will say Material at the top. Just above Cancel enter the color # where it says html

ok im stuck on step 4 to start with i dont know how to change the selected area to the color by using the numbers and then no clue how to do step 5
ok can someone tell me how to make it bigger like it should me and make the white background go away and lol when i tried to post it besides being tiny the animation isnt working
(https://img95.imageshack.us/img95/5359/colorchoice9gs.jpg)
Step 5: click just like you did to change the color. there are tabs at the top. click on
gradient. There is a gradient called
forground-background scroll down & select it. Settings:
repeats ...
1 Style ... click button on left and click ok

ok im all done with that tut shady lol if thats what your posting about lol sry should have said i thought you would have seen my tiny one that i posted that isnt working right lol still white backgroud and no animation in the post and way to small lol
ok lets see if this is going to animate and no white background and be bigger now most likely not lol
(https://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e231/macktami95/Animation3.gif)
To make it bigger resize your animation. To do this open the animation back up in animation shop. click on animation then click on resize animation. I'll have to go through the tutorial to figure out why you don't have animation but I'm guessing you missed a step in the animation part of the tutorail. I'd try printing it so you have it in front of you and going back through each step.

I've scanned over it but I haven't had a chance to do it yet. I am almost done with the Icon background for Patty. The puff people are next on my to do list. It looks pretty straight forward so shouldn't be a rough one. They're cute as can be too.

Going to write some simpler steps for the puffpeople tutorial.
I started to follow hers and realized there was a easier way to do it.
Just sent an email to Homer so that he can upload the 2 files for the tutorial.
lol thats cute Shady...
ok Mama... np
I wrote 90% of the tutorial last night before going to bed. The reason it was only 90% ... I accidently closed the window and hadn't saved it. ARGHHHHHH!!!!! Going to start over :'(
The purple puff people tutorial is complete and posted under the tutorial thread.

Just click on me to go to tutorial
The font zip link is correct now. I sent Homer an email with the picture tube file to replace the image file. I've put in a temporary step to do until he gets it switched.
Is this the tube, Shady>

This loses color or pixel... <<something suckz when u upload this>>
(https://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c28/TokensTokensTokens/purple.gif)
ROFL... u gotta have a sense of humor... I tried to report that I remove my pic to moderator...and this is the reply I got
An Error Has Occurred!
You can't report your own post to the moderator, that doesn't make sense!
.......... Make sense to me to not have an empty image on the forum----- <<maybe I need my medz...cuz what make sense to me...do not to others....>>
The tube has a transparent background but other than that yes.

UPDATE
Just wanted to let everyone know that has special requests in...
I haven't forgotten you. I am working on them as quickly as possible.
(https://img127.imageshack.us/img127/2241/purplepuff6rf.gif)
Here it is with a transparent background.
I uploaded it transparent on Photobucket... lol... I knew u would post back sayin that was not it....but I originally d/l it as transparent but for some reason lately the images I've uploaded on photobucket loses something in the conversion-uploade... I dont get it...... but seems every thing is effected and not as the original upload image..............
I should have said..." oh btw... that image was transform to a white bg... <back ground> "
oopz.. my point was... It was transparent when I uploaded it... I never touched it... but photobucket changed it ... I dont understand why ... but all my images are weird uploadin via photobucket than the original image
I don't know how to stop it from changing it but you can just open it in psp and use the magic wand tool and/or selection tool to get rid of the backfground. Hold the shift key while selecting all the areas you want to get rid of. Then, click ctrl + shift + I. Then click ctrl + c. Then ctrl + v. This will paste it as a new image without the background.
The tutorial for adding glitter to an animation is done. Next? Through out some ideas of what you want.
