Water Tutorial You will learn Five Water Tutorials just using psp7 and animation shop tools. no filters or plugins. Only the tools psps came with.  ripples , waves ,  rain. water falls, and a water siggy.   The first one we will learn is the ripple. Tutorial. You will need a photo. You can use this one or one of your own.   Just right click and save as. Remember what folder you save it in. This will be larger when you save it.  Now you need to open Animation Shop. Then use this tool to find the photo you just saved. It will open a window just like the one below. Just double click  on photo and it will come up in Animation Shop.   Now that its up in animation shop we need to resize it because its very large. And we don't need it that big. We will do this twice. First click on animation and this window below will open click on resize   Now another window will open put your settings as I have them. for such a large photo we may need to do this twice.  By clicking on this tool   you will see the actual size of your photo and know if it needs more resizing.   Going by percentage works best. I always play between 50 and 75 percent unless I want to make the graphic larger then anything over 100 will resize to a larger size. For this we want it smaller. Tip always work with a large enough size we can resize again later when done. Now once you have the size you want . You need to send to Psp 7 to sharpen alway sharpen after you resize. So Right click on your graphic and Exsport to Paint Shop Pro.   Now that you have it in psp7 you need to click on Effects then sharpen. Then update it back to Animation Shop by closing it with red x it will ask you if you want to update it to animation shop just click yes.   Now we have it back in Animation Shop. We need to duplicat Frames. but right clicking and click on Duplicate do this till you have 3 to 5 frames. I will use three for this tutorial.   continued   © WebHelp
