This is really easy

open the gif (this is a liquid gif, you can downnload it from here http://i.minus.com/ii5tGpUDShywH.gif)

It has 88 frames

now open a new document of the same size of the gif.

Now make your siggy in the way you want to make it, but it should be in the center since the liquid is in the center.

once you are satified with your siggy, go in the timeline/animation box and duplicate your siggy frame for 88 times, which means at the end you should get 88 frames in your siggy document just like the gif.

Now go in the gif, click on the little arrow at the end of the animation box, select all the frames, click again on the arrow and click on copy frames

go in your siggy document, click on select all the frames and then click on paste frames, a window will appear select these two options

Paste over selection

and tick the square near link all the layers

tip: before doing anything group all the layers of your gif, it will make easy for you to do few settings.

Select all the layers of your gif, how to do it? it's simple:

click on the first layer of your gif and than go the last layer of your gif and while clicking with the mouse keep pressed the shift bottom of the keyboard. it will select all the layers of your gif. Than go in Layer-->gourp layers and insead of seeing your layers you will see a folder.

^^you can do it even before copying your gif in the document.

Now with all the frames select move your gif in a way that when the liquid moves your siggy is visible, once done change the gif mode from normal to screen (click on the folder that contains the gif layers and than select the option screen, but make sure your frames are always selected, if you see it doesn't apply to all the layers click for 2 times on the little eye near the gif folder)

P.S. i will make a tut for it too but it will take a little 😃

P.P.S. check this tut

you need to work on the opposite way, instead of putting the gif beneath the siggy you need to put it on top of it, for the rest the basics are the same.

How to give glow or ligheten your pics

Original pic

Version one

Version Two

Step 1: apply the smart sharpen filter, I prefer don't sharp it too much, just the necessary

Step2: duplicate your pic now. And from now on you have to work only on your copy layer.

Step 3: go in edit--> adjustments select brightness/contracts. Here I normally just increase the brightness till 40/45, but sometimes I also decrease or increase the contrast too, it just depends on the pics. And click on okay.

Step 4: from the same list select hue/saturation increase a little bit the saturation and also the lightness bar, once done press okay.

Step 5: now again from the same list select the option threshold and keep it to 128 level and press okay.

Step 6: go to Filters--> Blur--> Gaussian Blur and keep the radium more than 4. Something between 5 and 6 will be okay.

Step 7: change the mode of you layer copy layer from normal to soft light and marge both the pics together.

--- this is what I have done to get the first version.

Step 8: from Filters--> Blur--> select Surface Blur and keep de Radium less than 10, 7 will be okay and the Threshold around 19/20.

^^ this is the step that I have added to the first version.

P.S. you can brightened you pic even with the curves, or use both of them because with the curves you can decide which part to lightened and which not, while with the brightness effect you are lightening the whole pic, but since my pic was okay on its own I used only the brightness effect.

P.P.S. you can do other changes too like put a little bit of Vibrance effect but whatever changes you do remember to do it before putting the Threshold effect, because after that I don't think they work properly.

P.P.P.S. Maybe there are other ways to get this effect which maybe can be more easy but till now I know only this one.

NOTE: the same thing work also to darken the pics, but for that you have to work with the black and white effect.
