15-With Image3 Merge/visible and save in your folder.

17-Add your hand tube and place in the next dusting position.
18-With Image4 Merge/visible and save in your folder.
19-Bring up Image6 and place to the left of Image5.
With Image6 active add a new layer and place your hand tube in the final position.
You won't need to use the layer palette slider on this view.
20-With Images 5 and 6 Merge/visible and save in your folder.
21-Image7 is the one you'll put your name on.
Add a new layer. Using the Text tool, pick your text color and font. The size of the font will depend on how many letters you have in your name, so you might have to experiment. Place your text where ever it looks best to you. A nice touch to add when you put your name in the mirror is to 'rotate' it 10-15 degrees to the left. Sharpen/sharpen, Merge/visible and add to your folder.
You now have 7 mirror images.
