Sweety has the permission of the tubers to use their tubes.
You can find the banners of these tubers in the left column
of her blog, under the heading "autorisations"
some of the tubes Sweety uses were received in sharing
groups
or found on the web
if one of them is your property, please let us know
a link to your site will be added

Sweety works with PSPX2, I work with PSP2018, but it is possible to use
another version.
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the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced
by --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 » --> mirror -> mirror horizontal
« Flip » --> mirror -> mirror vertical
tubes without tuber‘s watermark are ALWAYS stolen tubes
Please respect the tuber ‘s work
do like me : choose tubes with a watermark and give credit to the tuber
Thank you ! have fun....
