Bunney's Snowglobe Tutorial Page 4 Animating your snowman If you want to crop your snowman
do so now. Also if you want to add a background do that now also but make sure
if you do that the background layer is all the way at the bottom. Open your
layer palette and highlight your image layer. We do this now so we want have to
on each individual snowman. Now using shift and D on your keyboard we want
to create three images of your snowman. Change your foreground (styles) color to
white. Using your paint brush tool
Start painting dots all over your image layer on one of your snowman images like this
Once you get your snow where you want it merge visible all layers. Save this image as snowman 1. Do the exact same thing to your other two snowman images moving the snow around in different places. Name the second one snowman 2, and the third one snowman 3. Open up your psp animation shop. I am using animation shop 3. Go to file animation wizard.
On the first window that pops up click on Same Size as the first image frame. click next, The next window the transparent box needs to be checked. Then click next this window pops up use these settings
Click next. The next window needs to display these settings. Remember these are only as guidelines, You can play around with these settings if you wish.
Click next on that window. On the next window that opens up we need to add our images. So click on the add image button and browse till you find your three snowmen you saved. Doesn't matter what order you put them in.
Click next. Then on the last window just click finish. You will see your three snowmen images open up. To see the animation go to view animation. Your image will be large unless you resized it. Now to save the animation go to file save as and name your animation. Sometimes when you don't have a background and you want it transparent it leaves a darker black around your final image. Not sure how to fix this. But here is your finished image.
