21.) Make sure bottom layer is closed.. - Now Merge Visible all other layers -- R - 56% = 504 X 504 -- sharpen -

22.) Paper of choice - C&P as NRL-- above bottom layer-- add mask of choice and then delete mask -- and ungroup layers -- when this is done don't forget to crop -- opaque - 504 X 504

23.) open bottom layer and then merge visible all other layers-- add all CR info.. and your name.. if you don't want to animate than save this as Png.

now lets animate..

24.) Open Animation shop -- copy tag -- and then paste into animation shop as new Animation -- now you want to duplicate this layer =  4 X's = 5 frames --

25.) Open fireworks ( if you recognize this FW animation, please let me know , and I will give you credit .. thank you)

click on the 1st frame -- select all - copy

Now go to your frame ones, clicking on the 1st frame-- select all -- Propagate Paste-- and paste into selection -- your fireworks should be in all the frames-- you can keep adding more FW by just repeating - paste into selection ( make sure all frames are still active, you don't want it to have a spasm...) -- with all frames still active go to animation properties - opaque - white and with the frames still active change your frame properties to -- 20-- after viewing and your done save as GIF ,you want your animation to work.. good luck and I hope you could understand this.
