If it's any help, here is my own version of Giftie's excellent template (and credit to Sekhmet too).
It is built from the bottom-up in GIMP. The circles are smoother (mathematically perfect) and the shadows are more even.
I have also added paths for the rings, which are extremely useful when you are trying to position things - you can just make the paths visible and it gives you a useful guide.
Everything else works exactly as Giftie's tutorial.
