here is somthing I did today.  I had to improvise a bit  could not  get the rounded   square the way they  said so  I just went to   preset and   had one there
  than I  put the marching ants around the border did the gradiant fill  as they said and followed from there  I used  a tube  I had already  the  ones they are suggesting are pics  and  t hey  just did not look ok   for me  a tube was better 
 anyway here is my result  
 if anyone would like one with their  name on it  just ask  ok
