Open a template 500x200 in PSP...add a new layer... open your text if you are using mine and shrink it to taskbar ....text set at ...size set at 9 you will have to add this manually... .....stroke set at null....fill set at your choice... floating and antalias checked...kerring set at 95 to separate the letters.... type your name.....add an inner bevel with these settings

Now lasso around the letter you want to spin...edit...copy...hit delete... edit...paste as new image...now with your name active...edit...copy...merge.. in AS ...right click and paste as new animation....duplicate this text 13 times for 14 frames....shrink this to task bar for now... back in PSP....with the single letter active....edit...copy... in AS...right click and paste as new animation twice for 2 letters......with one of the single letter active... click on effects...insert image transition...

click the drop down button to spin...transition length 2.0....frame per second 6.....click ok

..now click on frame 13,12,11,10,and 9, and delete..so you only have 8 frames.... edit...select all..edit...copy...right click on last frame ...paste after current frame....with the last 8 frames highlighted...animation...mirror ..you should have 2 empty frames,one in the middle and one at the end...just click and delete those 2 frames...

now it should spin proper(I hope)...now click on edit...select all.... edit...copy...now bring up your text and click on edit...select all..edit...paste into selected frames and place your text in the empty space..

Here is where I cropped mine and re sized it to 300

This is the best I could figure this one out even though Robert gave me the instructions
