Merge group and RS by 95 % 

If you would not like to animate - 
Delete your white background layer - crop away any excess canvas - add your copyrights and save tag as PNG/JPG and then add name ! 

OPTIONAL:
If you would like to animate then well let’s go !!
 Everyone animates differently this is how I do it but if you have another way then go your own way heehee!! 

In PSP 
Highlight your copyright layer -
Layers - View Current Only 
Then check all your elements/frames/mask under Main Tube to make them visible 
Highlight your white background layer 
Edit - Copy Special - Copy Merged 

Open Animation Shop 
Edit - Paste as New Animation 
Using CTRL + L duplicate your frame until their is 25 of them ( just as the animation has 25 frames !) 
Edit - Select All 
Now - 
Open Animation 650 from RebelDezignsAnimation-Package-216 
Edit- select all
Edit - copy
edit - propagate paste 
Click back on your tag 
 Edit - Paste into selected frame 
place where you would like 
( I copy and pasted mine twice - one to the left and one to the right ) 

Back to PSP 
Highlight Main Tube Layer - layers view current only 
Then check all your elements above Main Tube also to make them visible 
Edit - Copy Special - Copy Merged 

Back to AS 
edit paste into selected frame 
And you are finished !
