You need animation shop for this
first open a new file what ever size depends on what you are using
I used 300 X 300 on transparent background
Now type in your text
go up to effects---to insert image effects
now a big box will open in this box you will see the words effects to the right
in this box there are several different effects, play around with them they are all neat
you can use the same setting that I used or use different ones this is the part where you experiment ( have fun)
click ok and click on view animations (this is a the very top it looks like a little film strip) (2nd thing from the right end)
and you should see your effects
now save it and post your results
