I am using two different animations by lovely: Water Fountain and Water waves.

Open both animations in AS3. With water fountain: Select All > animation > flip animation > select all > animation > replace colour and then use the settings below to change the colour.

Delete all frames past frame 8 in both animations. We will not need them.

In PDN, hide all layers above the mask layer; Copy remaining layers into AS3.

Copy the water waves animation and add it into the frames at the bottom. I pulled my first one to the right and then paired up a second addition to the left. Keep in mind you’ll have to even them up.

Copy these eight frames and add them back to PDN as a new image—one at a time! Start with the first frame as a new image and all other frames as a new layer.

Save as a .PSD with the same file name, but add “ani” after the normal file name. EX: “Garvey Golden Goddess Ani”.

Hide the last two layers and unhide all layers EXCEPT the upper Garvey tube.

Copy merged all above layers and add above all the animation layers of the new design and title it “covering 1”; click Save.

Hide each animation layer in its’ turn and add these layers IN THE SAME MANNER back into AS3.

USE CAUTION! If you are going from 8-1 frames, place them BEFORE each other, not after. If placed after when going backward, the waves will go toward the design, not away from it.

Pull up the water fountain animation to tweaked earlier. Add this into all the frames as close as you can to the opening of the water pitcher.

Place every one of the frames (yet again) in PDN as you did before, replacing the old saved animation.

Hide all layers but the drop shadowed upper tube layer. Open this, highlight it in the layers box and copy. Add to the top of EACH frame layer then merge with the frame.

Add the chosen name and your copyright (never use without a proper license). Add back to AS3 to animate. When done, hit shift+z to add the optimisation settings.
