Step One:
Open an avatar of your choice, also choose a background or a few of them.
Increase your avatar to 16 Million Colors, do the same to your backgrounds.
Click on the avatar, go to your Layer Palette and duplicate it. Make the Copy Layer
invisible (Do this by clicking Layer Visibility Toggle), click on the Background Layer. Next go to your Clone tool,
settings (Size:27 ; Hardness:0 ; Opacity:100 ; Step:25 ; Density:100).
Right click on any part of the Background/s you like and clone it onto the Background
Layer of the avatar. Repeat this until all parts of the avatar that you want changed
are done so. Next click on the Copy of Background layer, start erasing around the model
until you have the effect you want. Merge the layers and Colorize the avatar (Hue:20 ; Saturation:20).
Now your avatar is ready for plugins.




Step Two:
Go to Effects > Plugins > Flaming Pear > Aetherize
(Blur:30 ; Hues:29 ; Colorize:69 ; Haze:8 ; Dreaminess:30 ; Glue:Normal).




Repeat, change the settings
(Blur:30 ; Hues:29 ; Colorize: 69 ; Haze:8 ; Dreaminess:47 ; Glue: Normal).




Repeat: changes the settings
(Blue:26 ; Hues:16 ; Colorize:69 ; Haze:8 ; Dreaminess: 47: Glue:luminance),
Copy the layer, click undo, paste the layer onto the existing one. Change Layer 1 settings to
(Opacity: 71 ; Layer Blend Mode: Lighten).




Repeat the aetherize step, settings
(Blue:42 ; Hues:56 ; Colorize:69 ; Haze:8 ; Dreaminess: 35 ; Glue: luminance).




Copy the layer, click undo again, paste over the existing layer. Erase however you wish. Merge the layers.




Step Three:
Go to your Preset Shapes tool,
(Shape:RECTANGLE ; Retain style:UNCHECKED ; Antialias:UNCHECKED ; Create as vector:CHECKED; Line width: 1 ; Line style: SOLID ;
Stoke: #FFFFFF ; Fill:#858585). Draw a shape a cross the avatar. Go to your Layer Palette, Layer 1's LBM should be screen.
Merge Layers.




Next go to your Text Tool, I use this because it is quicker and when your in a contest it saves time!
Now your font should be a small font like 04b, size 6, antialias unchecked, NO stroke color, fill color #FFFFFF.
Use the period key until you have several all the way across your av. Right click on your Layer 1
in your Layer Palette and Convert To Raster Layer. Duplicate it, and drag the layer down under the other
side of the shape you made. Merge layers.




Next Change your font to Mr Canfields, size 72, antialias checked,
NO stroke color, fill color #000000. Conver to Raster Layer, go up to Effects > Blur > BLUR, go to
your LBM and click MULTIPLY.




Next use your text tool again change the color to #F1EBE5, and put it almost
right on top of the other text layer. Merge Layers.




Using your text tool again change the font to
Xenotron, size 8, antialias unchecked, color #000000. Convert to raster layer, LBM MULTIPLY, Effects > Blur > Soften.




Using your Text tool again, change color to #FFFFFF, place the text over the layer again. NOTE * If need be you might need to
duplicate the blurred layer so the white font shows better.*




Don't merge yet go down to your Background layer
on the Layer Palette and using your text tool change the font to Impact, size 48, color #FFFFFF, antialias checked.
Drag the layers opacity back to 51, and merge all layers.




Using your Preset Shapes tool again draw another shape
across the avatar stroke #FFFFFF, fill #858585. Merge layers.




Draw another shape over that shape, change fill color
to #C2B3A9. Merge layers.




Using your Draw tool, draw a white line on the inside of the shape.




Next, draw boxes in the corners.




Using your Preset Shapes tool draw another. shape inside the shape. Change the fill color to #A4A2A1. Merge.
Lastly put text inside the box, and then draw little boxes and dots around the avatar for effect. You can also add more
lines and text around the avatar too. Finished.
