     Annemarie, especially for this tutorial wrote this gorgeous script.
     Thank you so much Annemarie for this beautiful script :)
     The script=>here, Annemarie's site=> here

     An example of the working script here:



       Preparation:

        Pick a dark colour matching your tube, foreground colour =>
        I chose: #8B7F87
        Pick a light colour matching your tube, background colour=>
        I chose: #D4BCC3
        Use matching colors.



       Find your foreground/background gradient, use following settings



1.     Open a new transparant => 900x500 pixels and
         flood fill with your gradient .
2.     Effects - SapphirePlugin_0611 use settings below:
         (if you are using different colors, you have to play a bit with the settings
       untill you find a result that will put a smile on your face.) ;-))

4.      Effects - UnPlugged Tools - lomo => use settings below:

       and put it aside, for later on, to use as a background in the script)

13.    Effects - Flaming Pear Flood using settings below:
        ( a little remark about Flaming Pear - Flood.
          If you are using an older version
        of this filter, then it is possible that the result doesn't look good
