How to Make Glitter Names-An Easy Tutorial

Here are two samples of what a Glitter Name will look like


I promise you, it's not hard!
1. First you'll need to make a banner.  If you have PSP, you can create a new transparent image, put your name in white text on that image and save it as a gif.  Then skip to step #10.  If you don't have PSP, you can still make a glitter name!  Click
here to go to a banner site. If that site is down or does not work for you try this one.
If neither works,
see below.
2. Enter the text in the Banner Text Field.
3. Choose the font style you'd like.
4. Choose the font size. 40 is about medium.
5. Choose text color "white"
6. Choose background color "transparent"
7. Click on User Type "Regular".
8. Click Submit Button.
9. Either save down your name or right click it and copy the properties. You do NOT need to save it but doing so won't hurt anything.
10. Next, go to
Magick Studio. If that site is down or does not work for you, try this one
11. Under input, either paste the url of your name from Step #9 or browse if you stored it on your computer.
12. Click View
13. Click Composite
14. Select your glitter by browsing for it. If you don't have any, get some here
Glitter's Snagged Squares
15. Under "Compose" change to "In" and be sure to check the box to tile it across the image.
16. Click composite.  You can see here what your glitter name will look like but don't save it yet!! 
Do the last couple of steps or your glitter won't save at the proper speed and will glitter really slowly!
17. Select Output
18. Click on the output button
19. Right click on your glitter name and save it to your computer
20. You're done!!

If both banner sites fail, you can use Flaming Text. 
1.  Set text color, outline color, and background text color to 255/255/255
2.  Set outline size to 1
3.  Leave width/height as is
4.  Check the transparent box and create your logo then go back to step #10 above.
