Lets begin.

Remember to save often.

We're going to start a little different this time. Open your tube of choice, and make sure your "Browse" remains open at the same artist (don't go checking out any other tubes). On the tube you have opened, hide any background colours, company watermarks. We want it just sitting on a transparent canvas like so:

To change your canvas squares to compliment your tube or overall tag, go to File/Preferences/General Program Preferences/ and select the Transparency tab. Select your colour, and or size of square you want on your transparent canvas.

Ok, Select your mover tool and position your tube canvas where you think it would look best (mine was situated in the bottom left of my PSP program body, so I could see some more of the same artist tubes on the same shot). Hit PRTSCRN which is a key on your keyboard.

On the body of your PSP program body, right click and paste as a new image. Select your selection tool set to rectangle.  draw around your PSP program, and your taskbar (if you like). Go to Image/Crop to Selection.

Over on your layer palette, right click/promote background to raster layer.

Go to Effects/Plugins/Andromeda/Perspective and apply the following:

Go to Image/Resize/70%. Make sure Resize All Layers is UNCHECKED, and Smartsize is selected.

Now, lets resize your canvas (its huge!). Go to Image/Canvas Size/Width: 750, Height: 600/Placement: centre.

Over on your layer palette, add a new raster layer and drop this BELOW your Andromeda/Perspective layer. Change your foreground colour to white. Select your flood fill tool and flood fill this raster layer white.

Open the keyboard supplied with this tutorial. Right click/copy. Return to your working canvas and paste as a new layer.  Over on your layer palette, drop this keyboard layer so it is below your Andromeda/Perspective layer but above your white background. Select your mover tool and position where you think it looks best.

Open your tube again. Right click/copy. Return to your working canvas and paste as a new layer. This needs to be your TOP layer.

Add the following drop shadow to your Keyboard, Andromeda/Perspective layer and tube:

Open a 600 x 600 transparent canvas. Select your font tool, create as vector: checked. Type your name. Go to Objects/align/centre in canvas.

Go to Effects/Plugins/Mura Meister/Copies and apply the following settings:

Go to Effects/Plugins/Andromeda/Perspective and apply the following settings:

Right click/copy your font. Return to your original working canvas. Right click/Paste as a new layer. Over on your layer palette, drop your font layer so it sits on TOP of your keyboard layer but BELOW your Andromeda/Perspective layer.

Add the same drop shadow as before but change the Blur to: 5.

We're done! Here's another example:
