This tutorial was written the assumption that you have a basic working knowledge of psp. I'm using PSP X2, but this can be done in any other version

Let's get started!!!

Open a 600x600 transparent canvas - flood fill white

Pick a color from your tube - set foreground to this color and your background to black

Using your preset shapes tool - rectangle -width set at 5 - draw out a good sized sideways rectangle - convert to a raster layer - using your pick tool - set to perspective - click and hold the lower right corner and move up and left slightly so that your rectangle appears to be angling away from you

Select all - float - defloat - expand by 5 - new raster layer - flood fill white your tube color - apply scanlines - default settings but clicking vertical toggle - add a drop shadow - drag below your rectangle layer

Highlighting back on your original rectangle layer - apply Eye Candy drip - settings of your choice - add a drop shadow - select all - float - defloat - copy and paste a close-up of your tube - move to the left of rectangle - invert - hit your delete key - deselect - change blend mode to screen and lower opacity to 50

Copy and paste your tube - move to the right of your rectangle - add a drop shadow

Add word art of your choice - apply scanlines:

width - 3

spacing - 1

dark band strength - 39

light nonband strength - 64

noise amount - 0

darkness/lightness - 255

verticle toggle - checked

apply a gradient glow - add a drop shadow - apply drip - same settings but click random once

Crop tag

Add artist info and license #

Add name - applying the same scanlines, drip, and gradient glow that were used before

Done
