Making timeline banner.
Open a new image 851 x 315, resolution: 72, raster background, transparent.

Open two papers of choice. I used paper 6 and paper 11.
Copy your 1st paper and paste as a new layer. Move to the right side of template.
Copy your 2nd paper and paste as a new layer. Move to the left. My top paper, the one that touches the left side, takes up the majority of my timeline banner. Play around and see what you  like.

Copy and paste your tube as a new layer and drag her over the seem between the papers to hide it.
Copy and paste Anouk_label element as a new layer. Center and add drop shadow.
Copy and paste Anouk_speakers element as a new layer. Move to bottom and center. Add drop shadow.
Copy and paste Anouk_music lights element as a new layer. Should be your second layer from top, your tube being the first layer.
Position so it looks like it's coming out of the speakers.
Copy and paste Anouk_light3 element as a new layer and move behind your tube and cover some of the yellow paper on the right side.
Copy and paste Anouk_bombox element as a new layer and move low and to the left hand side of banner. Add drop shadow.
Copy and paste Anouk_bear element as a new layer, re-size by 55% and mirror. Position on the speaker. Add drop shadow.

Merge your two papers layers together.
Using your selection tool, set to rectangle, Mode set to Add, feather to 0. Select a portion behind your tube.

Promote your selection to layer.
Go to Effects>Plugins>VM Extravaganza>Transmission. Enter default settings.
Go to Selection>Select none. Now go to Image>Mirror>Image>Flip.
Back onto your paper layer. Using your selection tool again, select a small portion of the right side and the left side. Promote selection to layer.
Add noise. Got to Adjust>Add/Remove Noise>Add Noise>Check Gaussian, noise 83%, monochrome checked.
Merge those down to paper layer.

If you've put a drop shadow on all your elements and you are happy with your placement, save your tag as .pspimage.
Now duplicate and minimize original. I always save one tag in layers, just in case I want to add something or make changes.

Ok on duplicate tag(timeline), merge all visible.
Go to Effects>Plugins>AAA Frames>Foto Frame and enter the following:
In drop down box at bottom I selected: Black with Yellow Shadows and then I entered:
Width : 5
Brightness : -255
Stroke : 255
Matte : 5
Red : -160
Green : -180
Blue : -70
Opacity : 15

OK now for the avatar.
Open a new canvas 180 x 178, transparent.
Copy and paste your close up tube as a new layer.
Centre using your mover tool.
Merge all flatten. Repeat the border frame using AAA Frames.

For the copyright, you can't add the artist URL according to Facebook rules.
So just the add the copyright symbol © and artist name and your license number.
To get copyright symbol, hold down the Alt key on your keyboard and using your Numeric Keypad enter 0169.

Add your name using font of choice. I used P22 OhLey.
