Firstly you will need sparkle plug in click here to down load it


open up 2 new 600x600 transparent images


ok now make a copy of your pic ,and paste as a layer in to the 2 new 600x600 transparent images .now merge all visible in both the 600x600 pics so that there is only one layer in each pic


using the magic wand click in a transparent area so the ants are martching about the pic on the inside and out


go to sections and invert ,now the ants only march around the goblet


ok leave the pic selected and open the plugin sparkle up



you dont have to use these settings but do change the random seed so that your sparkles arent in the same position for both pics


ok unselect by right clicking on the pics while the active tool is the magic wand ,save both pics as a PSP file


ok lets open up the animation shop and animate
