Anchor

You are free to do whatever you want with you anchor, but you are not allowed to copy my tutorial. This is my work and I hope you respect that!

I hope you'll enjoy making this anchor as much as I did!

You need PSP8 or other versions will also be ok.

Open a new image, 100 x 100 pixels, transparent. Zoom it till you think it's big enough to work with.

Set your paintbrush to settings as shown under

I often find it helpful to use grid and a background color when I draw. Set your grid to 1px and choose whatever background color you like.

New layer and draw as under

Now you have

You can add some shadow

Selections - select all - float - innerbevel

Effects - 3D Effects and drop shadow like this

and get this

Or you can add an inner bevel like this

Selections - select none

Effects - 3D Effects - inner bevel

and get this

If you play around with other effects in your psp8 I'm sure you'll manage to make your very own anchor!
