TO Animate keep going.

30.) let's get started....-on the layers below the CB layer rename them "Bottom" Now working on the top layer - with your Preset shape tool, and with colors to accent your tube, draw an arrow-the examples for all these should be in my files..

31.) DS and rename them R=Arrows  - convert to raster layer

32.) Now open CB and close - orginal-- open arrows on bottom

GO To Animation shop- copy as new rastrer layer and paste into AS.

Repeat this by opening the close area as well --TR

do this for a 3 frame tag-- when happy-change frame properties to 45-- view and when happy saves as 80%

thank you for looking at my finished tuts.

October

I am sorry I didn't get any tutorials done this month. Real life did a bang up job on this family.. My BF's Mom died, we had her funeral, which she was buried on the anniversary of our Dad's passing, even though it's been 4yr's. And then we had to pack up her 3 bedroom duplex apartment, and we only had from the 14th to the 31st to have all her stuff packed and gone. Even in Death there is no respect.

And in all this we had to leave town due to, an emergency for 4 days. Oh yeah, we also had to plan a Wedding of my BF to my brother, his 1st marriage.. took him 50 yr's , about time.. huh?
Ok so my next 2 tutorials are Halloween based, sorry- better late than never...
Can't wait till things get back to order.
