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 Anna Liwanag.  You need a license to use this tube. I purchased this tube when she was at CDO. I do not know where/if she is selling anywhere now
