Ok the First Tip I need to share is this..

For those of you on Windows XP. PSP may not work on the main XP name. Why I do not know. I had this problem also.

Just create a New User Name in Windows. Then Open your psp under that name. It will work this way.

 

Now on with some links.

All of these are useful tips. and handy Shortcuts.

Resizing Completely Transparent Graphics

I found this Tut. It is the easiest way to explain those * Help Ive Lost My text or Help Ive lost My Picture* Questions.

Check out this link. and remember when you paste as a New layer. You can move ONLY that piece. Which is a HUGE help! When you paste as a New Selection  The when you try to move one. Everything Moves! WHich Is a pain.

 

So check this link out and tell me what ya think

ok I wrote a New Tutorial today.

It is written with PSP 7 

Will work with any version of PSP.

 

SO Lets Get Started and Learn to Color!

 

 

 

First write click on this image. and then Save as. Save it in your harddrive somewhere  you will be able to find it.

Now Open this image In PSP. first we will make a new layer.

With Image opened go to Layers .. New Rastor Layer

A New Window will pop up. With the Drop down menu. choice color then Click Ok

Check all the Boxes you see checked

After clicking ok. you need to click on the spray can on your tool bar

 

Now You will choose your colors.

First go to your color palete. Now I chose to use solid colors. You CAN use your gradients if you like.

 

Now after you have all of these checked

If you like you can go into your custom colors By Clicking on the color that is visible. and this will pop up

 

Find the color you like when you have the color set. with your left mouse button you can spray the colors on. use your tool options to make the spray can amount smaller or larger which ever you prefer.

If you are having problems seeing the image. Just clik the magnifying glass. This will zoom in on the image.

after you have it all colored. you want to merge the image

 

Then save it into your hardrive where you can find it. Save it as a JPG

Then if you like please share with me. I would love to see if anyone got any use out of this tutorial.

(((Hugs)))

Lil
