Tips and Hints
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 window is opened, 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been replaced by -->
« Mirror » --> image => mirror
=> mirror horizontal
« Flip » --> image => mirror => mirror
vertical

translator’s note
I use PSP2019 to create my tag and write my translation
but this tutorial can be realized with another version
according to the version of PSP you use, the results might
be slightly different
don’t hesitate to change blend modes and opacities
of the layers to match your tubes and colors
Use the pencil to mark your place
