Supplies

Jasc/Corel's Paint Shop Pro.

Call Me Supplies includes the phone template, phone psp file and animated phone

Tube of Choice  - The tube image I am using is a commercial licensed image created by Rion Vernon.  You can purchase Rion Vernon's delightful art work in both tube and image form through CILM.  

Step 1

Open up your phone template and tube graphic. 

Optional text:  If you like, you can add the words call me at the top area of the phone as I did in my tag.

Make the tube graphic active and go to Edit/Copy.  Make the phone template active and go to Edit/Paste as New Layer.  If the tube graphic is too large, go to Image/Resize using the percent option, bicubic and resize all layers NOT checked.  Move the tube graphic either next to or on top of the phone graphic. Look at my tag above.

Step 2 (Optional)

You can add a drop shadow to the tube graphic by going to Effects/3D Effects/Drop Shadow and using the settings from above or your own favorite setting.

Step 3

Open up the phone1 psp file and paste it to your tag. If the graphic is too large, resize the same way as you did in Step 1.

Step 4

Go to Layers/New Raster Layer and apply your text to the graphic. You can add an optional drop shadow as you did in Step 2.  Leave room to the right of the text to apply the animated phone.   On the same layer as your text, also apply your copyright information.

Step 5

Left click the crop tool and draw a rectangle around the areas you wish to keep, eliminating excess unused palette.  Remember that we will need additional palette to the right of the text for the animated phone. Once you have that rectangle drawn, double left click in the middle of the rectangle or left click the check mark in the crop ribbon.

Step 6

Go to Image/Resize using the percent option at 80%, bicubic and resize all layers checked. Save this file as a psp or psd file.
