1. Start by opening up a new transparent image. I'm using a size of 500 by 500 pixels for the tutorial.
2. Set both foreground and background colours to white.
3. Double click on the font from the zip, or use one of your own. I have chosen to use the Zombie Holocaust font. Create as Vector, Size 100, Stroke Width 1, Anti-alias is checked.
* You don't have to install the font, just open it up by clicking on it and then minimize it. You will still be able to use it without installing.
4. Type out Happy Halloween or what ever you choose.
5. In the layer palette, right click on Vector 1 and choose Convert to Raster Layer.
6. Go up to the Selections tab, choose Select All, back up to the Selections tab and choose Float, then again to the Selections tab and choose Defloat.
*You should have marching ants all around your image.*
7. Go up to the Effects tab, down to Plugins, find Flaming Pear and choose Super Blade Pro.
8. From the list of presets, find sg_greeneye.q5q, select it and then hit OK. You should have something that looks like this:
9. Go up to the Selections tab and choose Select None.
10. Use the graphics I have shared with you to decorate or choose your own.
I have added a dropshadow to the finished tag seetings
( Vertical -1, Horizontal 1, Opacity 100, Blur 0, Color Black )
Finished Tag should look a little like this
(with out white dropshadow)
