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
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been replaced by --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
