Supplies
selections - tubes

the main tube is not provided. I chose one of mine
thank you to the tubers for their great work
open the tubes, duplicate and work with the copies
copy / paste selections into the folder « selections » of Corel PSP general Folder
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 from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by -->
« Mirror » --> image => mirror => mirror horizontal
« Flip » --> image => mirror => mirror vertical

Plugins
Eye Candy Impact/Glass/Clear-Filtre Xero / porcelain (new version of Porcelain => you can find it in Tine's page)
Filtre Adjust
Graphic plus / Cross Shadow
