Step 4: Go to the layers pallete and click the eye next to the copy layer.
Then go to the animation window and click the button next to the trashcan to duplicate the first frame. Then click the empty space next to the copy layer again. If u play the animation, u can see the effect. But its alittle to fast so lets tweak the timing.

Step 5: Select the second frame in the animation window and press the tween button, it's the button in the animation window with little circles going diagonal. Then use these settings

Step 6: Then select the first frame in the Animation window and while holding down shift select the last frame in the animation window. Then change the delay to about -- 0.5 seconds -- or whatever u think fits the effect well.

Step 7: Save as optimized and ur done!
