Get my template at my site:
http://jgdahl.tripod.com/Flags/flags.html
http://massf.cdis.org/~jd4031/Flags/flags.html
Step 1: Get an image of what you want to make a flag or shield out of:
Step 2: Copy and paste the image into the template-large.psd, and drag it down to the bottom of the layer stack.
Step 3: Resize it by pressing control-T and drag the control points around till it fits inside the shield "window" nicely.
Step 4: Select the Marquee tool
and drag a box around the first shield window area.
Make sure the bottom layer with your graphics is selected!
Step 5: while the Marquee tool is still selected, hold down ctrl-alt and drag the graphics to the same spot under the other 3 shield.
Step 6: Save your template, and save a copy as shield_XXX (XXX being the country code you want to make the shield for.) hide the goldenshield layer and unhide the silvershield layer.
Save another copy as silvershield_XXX.
Step 7: Copy the graphics you still have marqueed, and paste into the template-small.psd. Again drag the graphics to the bottom of the layer stack, move under the first shield and resize it so it looks right.
Step 8: Like in steps 4 and 5, marquee the small shield and drag it over the second, and fourth shield, THEN drag it over the third shield, and resize it so it looks right on the smaller of the small shields.
Step 9: Save your template, and save a copy as smallshield_XXX. You are now done, celebrate in your own personal manner.
