ATTENTION

Some 8BF plugins don’t work.

By using them anomalities can occur or the program can be blocked.

The little free FM Patcher can very often put an end to these problems.

ATTENTION:

This lesson was made in psp version 19 , but can easily be made in previous versions.

Mail me if you encounter some difficulties.

In earlier versions, merging down layers with different blend mode and/or opacity, can result in a slightly different effect .

The option Image - mirror/flip is no longer available in PSP versions newer than X4 - Psp X5- X6- X7 - X8 and X9.

There is a new option but this does not give the same result except when the tube/ image covers the whole image from side to side.

There is an easy way to add the old Mirror and Flip options to the Image Menu

Please use the script .
