Resemblance to any other tutorial is purely coincidental

I have to give thanks to all the fantastic tubers out there
I really appreciate your work
I wouldn't be able to write my tutorials if it wasn't for your creations

I have written a version of this tutorial which uses only one Plugin that is free
I am calling it No Deform - No Dream and you can find it Here


Supplies

Paint Shop Pro
Auto Fx Dreamsuite 2
Filters Unlimited
Tube - Here
**Open on your workspace**
Font - Here
**Open and minimize in your taskbar**



1. Open the tube you are going to use, duplicate and close the original

2. Image - Canvas Size - 500 x 500
We will resize after we are done - more space is a good thing *g*

3. Duplicate the tube layer - hide the copied layer
4. Effects - Plugins - Filters Unlimited - Distortion - Deformer

 Effects - 3D Effects - Drop Shadow

6. Unhide the tube layer
Place tube in position

7. Layers - New Raster Layer

Add your text - I have my settings as follows
I used color #0e0e0e with no stroke

Add a drop shadow to the text - use the same settings
as in Step 6

8. Layers - Merge All - Merge All (Flatten)
Image - Resize 75%, Bicubic Resample

I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial
