**NOTE** We will be using several layers so if you want to name your layers then start now .. open your layer palette, right click on the layer that is there, you should only have one, and choose Rename "Top of Shade" **

#8 .. Add new layer (go to layers, add raster layer OR click on the NEW button on the top left hand side of your layer palette window OR click your layer button  of course if you have this button then you know what to do:) .. sorry felt like a little giggle:)  Name your layer Bottom of Shade.  Move this layer to the bottom of the layer palette

#9 .. Use your Pre shape tool same settings as before, Draw your ELLIPSE starting at 80, 175 go to 225, 200 

#10 .. Use your magic wand to select the bottom of the shade and apply the same Inner Bevel (step #6) that you used with the top of the shade.

#1 .. Switch your foreground to your background color, do this by clicking on the little arrow between the two colors on top of the color palette

#3 .. Now draw from 97, 89 to 200, 199  You will have a square like this.

(your color will be better than this, this has been compressed)
 

#4 .. Use your Object Selector tool  .. Click on "Node Edit" in your Tool Options window.  When you click on it the color of your "square" will disappear and you will see a box where it was.  With your CTRL key held down, Take your mouse and pass it over the TOP line (where the red is in this picture.  When it says ADD then click your left mouse button.  Put a node in each spot where you see the red dots in this picture, they do not have to be perfect you just need 3 on the top line and the bottom line.  After you have the new nodes in place then let go of the CTRL button.

((the white is so  that the detail can be seen easier, yours will be transparent.
 
 

     #4a .. Now without doing anything else or touching any other buttons, pull your new nodes that are on the top down to the Shade line, follow the line until they are nice and even. Move each one that is on the outside inward just a tad where it sits right at the edge of the inside of the lamp.

Close up left side of top of shade.

     #4b ... Do the same with the bottom of the "square" .. Pull the one on the right to the end of the shade, then the one on the left to that end of the shade, and the 3 in the middle make even on the bottom until you have something that looks like this.  (THIS picture is a little larger so you can see the detail better.  When you are done RIGHT click outside of the lampshade (where the red X is in the picture below) area and choose "Quit Node edit"  the front of your shade will be back.

#5 .. Open your layer palette, You will see a  little square like this   next to the new layer.  Right click on where it says LAYER ? (where ? will be a number .. mine was 3 but yours will be 1 or 2 if you named the other layers like the prier steps called for) When the new window comes up choose CONVERT TO RASTER LAYER, then right click again and RENAME it to "Front of Shade".

#16 .. Move the new layer "Front of Shade" To the Bottom. Now you have this.

#17 .. Make "Bottom of Shade" your active layer. You can do this by clicking on it in the Palette WIndow.

#18 ..Use your Freehand tool  set to freehand, feather at 0, Antialias UNchecked.  Draw a circle (IT does not have to be perfect) around the back of the BOTTOM of the Shade. (It will be easier to do if you zoom in one)

  What you are doing is taking the back out but you want the sides to line up so it looks like the "shade" is inside of the "ring" of the bottom of the shade.
 

****** NOTE .. These next steps are in case you want to make your lamp shade a little see through, if you do not want to then skip to BACK OF SHADE.

#19 .. VERY important to do this in the RIGHT order.  Click on your Copy button  ..

#3 .. CLick on the Object Selector  and choose Node Edit in the Tool Options window.  Add three Nodes to the top line and 3 to the bottom line, just like you did before.  After you get the new nodes in then let go of the CTRL key.

    #3b ... Right click on that layer in your layer Palette and Choose Convert to Raster, then right click and name it "Back of Lamp Shade"  Now you want to move that layer to underneath the Front of Lamp shade because it probably is on top of it.  Turn the visibility back on for the Front of Lamp Shade.  You should have this now.

Go to edit, paste and  Paste into Selection, then go to Image, Mirror.  (This will turn the picture so it would look the same if you could view it from the back.)

#2 .. Set your 2nd style button to IMAGE , after setting it choose the image that we used to make the lampshade with.  Do this by clicking on the image that will show up when you choose image .. when that window comes up click on the push bar next to the image in the window.  That will bring up several images to choose from.  Pick the one that we used earlier.  Scale is set to 250, 0 angle.  Click OK

#10 .. Now hold down your CTRL key again and add a node between each one that is already on the base on each side, I have a red line on each one that I added here.  You are doing this so it makes it more of a round bottom.  You may have to move them just a little to get a round bowl.

#11 .. When you think you are done then right click your mouse outside of your lamp area and choose Quit Edit Mode .. IF you like the shape of your base then move to step #12, if you don't then right click again and choose Node edit and you will be back in the edit mode and can move what you like.  When you are done move to step #12.
