Oh Sooooo Sweet

Welcome back to my Home Away From Home.

I was asked from a friend when will I make another tut.  Well here it is and it was as fun to make as my first one.  You can stop tapping your foot.  LOL Wouldn't want you to put a hole in your floor.
Any ways here you go Tutorial number 2.  I titled it Oh Sooooo Sweet because of the word art. 
Any similarities to any other tutorial is purely coincidental.

MY First Tut Remember Our Fallen Soldiers

Welcome to my Home away from Home.

Before I get started I would like to thank my daughter for designing my blog background. I love, love, love, did I say love it.  I couldn't have done it without her.  I think she is the best daughter a mom can have and I love her very much.

Now to the business at hand......
This is my first ever tut.  Hope you all enjoy it.  Any similarities to other tutorials are purely coincidental.

Now the last but not least and the most important part.
make sure you have all copyright info of the tube you used.  Now if it is a PTU tube don't forget your license number. last thing is to add that you were the one that made the tag for an example--- tagged by Pat'11.

Merge all layers visible
 save as a png file

now for the avatar

undo the merge
and merge all layers except the copyright info
make sure your ratio is locked and resize it to 250 (with the ratio locked it will automatically resize the x ___ part)
then add all the copyright info and your licence and your tagged by where it is visible.

then merge those layers visible
also save as a png file.

Hope you find this easy to understand. 
I would love to see your results.  You can send your results or questions you may have to my email:
purplegrannie17@yahoo.com .
 As I said at the beginning this was my first one and I plan to add more as I have the time.
