Archer template

Open your template in PSP...close off all layers except the bottom layer and the top layer... we have to judge where the arrow is going to land on the letter you chose

With the text tool...size set at 48...stroke set at null...fill set at your colour... floating and antalias checked.....font Impact, in your font list, or your choice ...type your name and place it so the last arrow is going to drop the top of the letter,

in this case mine is "T" and I had to make my canvas size larger to accomodate where the arrow would land...you may or may not have to do this, if you do just go to "image...canvas size and change the top size and make sure the bottom size is set at 200...center image horizontilly and center image vertical, both checked

Now we can begin

Re name this layer text and drag it to the top of the stack..... With the text layer set in place and being the active layer...add a glass effect.. effect...eye candy...glass...with these settings

Duplicate the text layer and close off the copy....with the text layer the active layer and with your lasso tool ,lasso around the peice you are going to attach to the arrow...edit....copy...hit the delete key ...edit ...paste as new layer...re name this peice
