Franie works with PSPX9, and I use PSP 2020 Ultimate

The tubes Franie uses have been sent by the authors on different groups
And she has their permission to use them
she is a tuber herself
If you see a tube that might belong to you, contact Franie or myself
And a link towards your site will be added if necessary
Please, don’t use tubes found on the web with no watermark
all tubers apply their watermark without any exception !!!!!
no watermark ---> stolen tube

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 from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by --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   -  has become ===>     image => mirror => mirror horizontal
image ->  Flip  -  has become ===>  image => mirror => mirror vertical
