Hi all...

I have been asked again for instructions on how I use the blings on tags...
I know some already know how and you probably do it a different way,
but thought I would tell you how I do it...

We will use this tag to put a bling on...

You can use any tag you wish, but the dark back ground ones are the best...

Bring this up in PSP animation...

I am sending the fireworks Bling I am using for this...

this is what the animation will look like in your PSP

You have 18 frames in the fireworks..you can see that where I have circled in red...

Now you need to make 18 frames for your tag...

Go to Edit and then Duplicate Selected and click that...

usually it goes 1 2 3 5 9 17 Now you want to stop it at 17, and click the frame so it is red at top and bottom....then go back and duplicate selected 1 more time...that will give you 18 frames.

You will get to 18 very fast so be careful and watch your frames so you do not go more than 18...If you do just go to Edit and click on the frame you want to delete and click delete..

when you click on your frame BE SURE IT HAS RED AT TOP AND BOTTOM....this means that is frame is active...

See on the picture below the red line on the image...It will be that way at the top too...

See where I have circled in red ....it says 18 frames..

That is what yours should have...

Now go to your first frame...using the slider bar

Yours should have F 1 at the bottom and it should have a red line on the bottom of the image and at the top...

This means that this image is ACTIVE...

Go back to your Bling image

click on it to make it ACTIVE ....it should have blue at the top...

and you should be on the 1 Frame It won't work it isn't...

Press Ctrl A then Ctrl C

Go to your image

be sure this is ACTIVE now...

Press Ctrl A then Ctrl E

(Sometimes when there are lots of frames the CTRL A and CTRL doesn't want to work. What you can do is go back to your Fireworks and Click CTRl A CTRL C then drag with your mouse and the fireworks onto your image and when you have it when you think it would look the best click the mouse...If you do not like it there, just click the undo button on both of your images...)

go to View Animation to be sure your fireworks is working on your tag....If it is you save it where you want it... and you are finished..

If the animation is going to fast slow it down by going

Animation click that

go to Frame Properties

box will come up...like this click on Frame Properties

in the Display box I put mine at 15 and click OK

I know this seems like a lot of different things to do, and you may know an easier way to do it...This just seems to be the easiest way for me...

Your finished tag should look like this....
