1. Make a new image, we used 160 x 160 with a white background

2. Click layer > new > layer - and make a new layer

3. Fill this in black

4. Grab the circular marquee tool, and whilst holding shift, drag out a circle approximatley 4 times bigger than the canvas. Place this as you see in image 1 and hit delete
