example
Open the graphic you're gonna use in PSP,(if it's a little large
resize it and then sharpen it up a bit)We're gonna add a border of
10 pixels around our graphic(image-add borders).Select the border
with your magic wand so you see the marching ants.Then we're gonna
make a kaleidoscope effect(in psp 7 beta that is to be found under:
effects-reflectioneffects-kaleidoscoop),fool around with the settings a
little until it looks the way you want it to and then we're gonna use
some eyecandy(with the border still selected):
We're gonna use the swirleffect,use 90' twist from the dropdown menu
(next to the little pencils) and push the checker(looks like a V) at
the right top.
Now we're gonna make a nice bevel(Those marching ants are still
marching btw =o))Go image-3d effects-inner bevel(again this goes for
psp 7 (beta 5))
I chose the groove preset from the dropdownmenu...and press ok.
Then we're gonna add some dropshadow to give it some depth,i used these
settings:
horizontal and vertical both 2,opacity 75 and the blurr 11.
Next hit selections-select none.
Save it as a jpg and that's it!!
Happy Creating!!
