Akane Gifset Tutorial

Hi. Hello! So I got this message ~~

For this Gifset~~ https://www.tumblr.com/jumbledmesh/773717465429671936?source=share

Hopefully this helps. I may not be as efficient as I hoped it was and I'm sure there is a better ways to make this, buuuut, this is my way I guess. LOL.

First of all, create your Gif/Gifset however you normally make it. Then choose the Marquee Tool:

Now just choose the size you want your borders to be. BUT, make sure you have a new layer to create the border. Let's name this layer, Layer 1. Click on the edge of your gif/gifset using the marquee tool with selected size of border.

You'll have something like this~~~

Once you have that, click on the paint bucket tool to colour over the highlighed border size. Now do the same for all edges of your gif/gifset.

Layer 01 should look like this~~

Double click on Layer 1 and click on the Pattern overlay. Follow the settings below. You can choose any pattern you want, but you may have to search for different patterns online to download. Personally, I get my patterns on DeviantArt. You can go through my favourites to find ones you like: DA//rsmiilees-x3

Once you have your border done, create another layer (layer 2) Ctrl + Shift + Right Click Layer 1 Then Ctrl + Shift + i ~~ To inverse the Marquee highlight. Now colour over that highlighed shape by using the paint tool bucket on Layer 2 to get something like this:

Now, make sure to drag the "Fill" down to 0% but keep Opacity to 100%. Double click Layer 2 > click Stroke > Follow stroke properties.

Then you'll have something like this:

Essentially you'll be creating asolid border around your gif/gifset ontop of the patterned border.

Honestly, as I made this tutorial, I realized it sounds pretty complicated. BUT TRULY, it's really note that complex LOL. If I figure out an easier way to create this, I will for sure make another tutorial! Hoprefully, this helps with answering your question Anon.~~

Dropbox Direct Link

Hi. Hello! I made a tutorial on how to generate a direct download for Dropbox. Other people probably have an easier way to get the direct download link, but HONESTLY, for the longest time I could not figure it out and some people probably know how to get the direct link from Dropbox alone. SO, this is my way of doing it. It works for me, therefore, I’m fine with it aha. Use it to your advantage LOL.

First, login to your www.dropbox.com account and upload and/or find the file you want.

Click on the share button and an overview (?) of the file will pop up. Now just click the “create link” button.

Once you’ve done that, it should have the option to “copy link”. Click that and it’ll automatically copy the Dropbox link you need.

Should look something like this (please keep in mind that doesn’t have to look EXACTLY like this; all you gotta worry about it the first part of the link tbh):

https://www.dropbox.com/s/5z2bbagawhjin9c/%5BMINI%20ALBUM%5D%20JUNNY%20VIVID%2C%20PT.2.mp3?dl=0

To make this link into a DIRECT LINK, you just need to replace:

www.dropbox.com with dl.dropboxusercontent.com And you will end up with…

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/5z2bbagawhjin9c/%5BMINI%20ALBUM%5D%20JUNNY%20VIVID%2C%20PT.2.mp3?dl=0

Copy your new link and now you can paste it onto your browser, and it will directly download the file.
