translator’s note
« Belle de Nuit » works with
PSP X, I use PSPX9 to create my tag and write my translations
but this tutorial can be realized with any other version
of PSP
according to the version of PSP you use, the results might
be slightly differents
don’t hesitate to change blend modes of layers matching
your tubes and colors
Colors
color 1 --> foreground color --> FG --> left click
--> #ffffff
color 2 --> background color --> BG --> right click
--> #d48566
Hints and Tips
TIP 1 -> if you don’t
want to install a font -->
open it in a software as « Nexus Font » (or
other font viewer software of you choice)
as long as both windows are opened (software and font),
your font will be available in your PSP
TIP 2 -> from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have
been replaced by -->
image -> Mirror --> image -> mirror -> mirror
horizontal
image -> Flip --> image -> mirror -> mirror
vertical
Use the pencil to follow the steps
hold down left click to grab it and move it
