This tutorial was written by me. Any resemblance to any other tutorial is pure coincidence. Please DO NOT claim this tutorial as your own. It was written in PSP 9 but should be compatible with any version of PSP.


I am using the artwork of Amy Matthews. You need a license to use this tube. You can buy the art at CDO

I am using the PTU kit School Days by Manipulated by Magik . Visit her blog HERE to find where she sales her kits and more.
