groups
or found on the web
if one of them is your property, please let us know

Thanks to Sweety for her kind permission
Sweety works with PSPX2, I work with PSP2018, but it is possible to use
another version.
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...
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 the software’s window is opened, 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been replaced by --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
