You will find the original tutorial here :

This tutorial is a personal creation.
Any resemblance with another one would be only pure coincidence.
It is stricly forbidden to modify tubes, to change their name or take off the matermarks,
To present them on your sites or blog,
To share them in groups,
to make a bank of images, or to use them on lucrative purposes.

Thank you to respect Shawnee’s work and the tubers work.
Don’t hesitate to warn me if you have any trouble with this translation,
and I’ll try to fix the problem as quickly as I can

I used PSP 2020 to create my tag and make the translation
you can follow this tutorial with another version of PSP, but the result might be slightly different

Supplies
tubes - mask - color palette

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 from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by --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

Plugins needed
Unlimited => ICNet => Edges => Squares

Use the pencil to mark your place along the way
hold down left click to grab and move it

Prepare your work !
duplicate all the tubes and work with the copies to preserve originals
open the mask and minimize to tray
save your work often in case of problems with your psp
use the Dropper tool to pick up your colors into your tubes and misted images
Shawnee chose these :

don’t hesitate to change blend modes and opacities of the layers to match your personal colors and tubes
