Make Your User Bars/sigs Change

Make Your User Bars/sigs Change



Step 1: First, open up photoshop and open up 2 or more (I will be using 3) user bars that are .gif . And line them up how you want (top being the first to show, last being the last in the flashing order).:



Step 2: Then open a new document and make it have these settings except you need to change height and width to the same size as all of your other userbars:



Step 3: Put that aside for a moment and select the magic wand and make the Tolerence 255. Click on the bottom user bar in your line up and select the move tool and move the bar to the "changing user bar" document. You should have this:



Step 4: Now on the "changing user bar" document select; Layer>new>layer (and have the setting like below) and hit okay.

Step 5: Repeat steps 3 and 4 except go up in the order from the bottom of the the user bars (that's in step 3) and don't repeat step 4 once your last user bar is pasted on the last layer. You should have this:

Step 6: Delete all your other user bars other than "changing user bar" document. This is what I have:


Don't pay attention to the red words until step 9

Step 7: Switch over to image ready. Then make a new frame in the animation bar (if not there click; window, animation) Here is where you click on the arrow on the side of the animation bar and click "new frame". Then make the top layer invisible (by making the eye go away next to the layer) and leave your other layers below visble (eye is still there). Like this:



Step 8: Then tween (the button that looks like a bubble getting smaller) about 25 frames. Hit the play button and the first picture should disappear.


Step 9: Repeat the red words, and where it says in step 7, MAKE THE TOP LAYER INVISIBLE, keep going down until all your layer show during the play button.


Step 10: Now it cut off at the end... so to make it look better make all the layers visible at the end, and tween 25 frames, and delete the last frame. Then where the pictures aren't see-through put a 2 second delay on them (click where it says 0 seconds). There you go, and this is what i got.
