thank you Tine for Sharing your plugins page

translator’s note
« Belle de Nuit » works with PSP X, I used PSP2018
to create my tag and write my translation
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
--> #151d46

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 the software’s windows is opened your
font will be available in 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been replaced by --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
