thought i would share how to make the "water" effect like so:

ok, this is what i did:
1.) Make sure the image is in RGB mode (go to the top to where it says image, go down to mode and over to RGB)
2.) Then go to create and edit paths on your toolbox (its the one that looks like a pen with a line coming out with three dots connected to it) lol, if you can picture that. [lol]
3.) Using that tool (create and edit paths) make an outline to where you want the water to be (just click where you want the dots to go)
4.) Once you have created your path, go up to Select on the top menu and go down to "Select from path" and it should be outlined with a dotted slash line that moves.
5.) Then go to the top menu and pick "Script-Fu" then down to "Animators" then over to "waves"
6.) Save As gif: make sure to click on the "Save as an animation" box.

then upload it into photobucket and see your final result
