In this lesson we will discuss adding a name to an Animated tag that has already been made.  I found this tag from an old send and think it is perfect for our purposes. 
 
 
 
Save the tag here to a file where you will be able to easily find it.  Then open in Animation Shop.  Create a signature in PSP then copy it / Paste as new animation in AS, you may need to resize to fit the graphic.
 
  Here you will see that our tag has two frames and the text or signature has only one.  We will need to duplicate the text by going to Edit / Duplicate Selected.  Next go to our tag and make sure that all frames  are selected by going to Edit / Select All or (CTRL + A). 
 
In order to properly place our text into each frame  we need to click on Propogate Paste, then going back to our text or signature Select all again, the copy and paste (Into Selected Frame) in the first frame of our tag.  You should now have the text or signature placed in the exact same place in both frames of the tag. 
 
  Once that is done set your display time as you wish and this is what your new tag looks like.
 
 
 
Have Fun!
