So, I was feeling a bit dark and gloomy and decided to make a kit inspired by my favorite serial killer...Dexter Morgan. Okay, so he's not a REAL serial killer, but a little creepy nonetheless...LOL.
What can I say?? I have a thing for the dark and deadly.
If you do too this kit is for you!!!!!

-Open word art. Move right above the texture layer. Place in the center of tag. Lower the opacity to 65. Repeat drop shadow.
 
-Add your name and copyright. You're done right now if you do not want to animate.
 
ANIMATION:
This may get a little tricky because there are going to be so many layers, so I will try and explain this the best I can.
 
First, here is what my layer box looks like. I'm hoping yours will look similar:
 
 
 
-Now we need to merge some layers together. First off, press CTRL+D on your keyboard to make a duplicate of your tag. That way if you mess us, you won't have to undo everything.
 
-Make your top layer active. Merge all the layers above the texture layer together. So I will be merging credits, border, border shadow, name & wordartbyleah. Rename this merged layer TOP.
 

 
-Make TOP invisible by clicking the eye nest to the layer. Now go to Image>Merge Visible Layers. Rename this layer BOTTOM. Now you should have only 2 layers. Make TOP visible again.
 
 
 
-The animation has 20 layers, so we need to duplicate each of our 2 layers 20 times. So make TOP active and duplicate 19 times so you have 20 layers of TOP. Do the same for BOTTOM. Now you should have 40 layers total.
 
This is where is get a little tricky. We will be doing a lot of rearranging of the layers. So make the layer BOTTOM copy #18 active. Open animation (Go to File>Open As Layers). Make sure you open the PSD file of the animation.
 
-Now you have a whopping 60 layers! We are going to get it down to 20 layers once we are done.
 
-We need to lock all the animation layers together so we can move the animation and it moves together. The animation layers names are the number 1-20. So click the space inbetween the eye and the layer.
 
 
-I placed my animation to the left side of my tag.
 
-Move layer 20 below Top copy #18. Move layer BOTTOM below layer 20. We will call this a group of three (to make it easier to understand here in a sec).
 
 
Continue doing this. Here is the order of my layers:
 




 
-Next, we need to merge each group of 3. Merge Top copy #18 with 20. Now merge this layer with BOTTOM. There is 1 of your finished layers. Continue to merge in groups of 3. Merge the TOP layer with an animation layer, them merge that layer with a BOTTOM layer. Hopefully the make sense. So the next layers you will be merging are TOP copy #17, 19 & BOTTOM Copy. Make sure you don't merge the layer above these with this group of 3.
 
-Once you have got all your group of 3 layers merged together, you should have 20 layers.
 
 
-Now it is time to see if how our animation looks. Go to Filters>Animation>Playback and press play.
 
-Now it is time to save, finally!
 
-Go to File>Export. Now type the name you want it saved as followed by .gif. Press export. It may ask you to crop, so go ahead and crop. In the next box, make sure to check near animation, then export and your finished!
