This tutorial was created for some friends of mine who wanted to begin learning more about PSP.  It is intended for high beginners to intermediates to learn how to use filters.  If you have any questions, please feel free to email me.
 

To do this tutorial you will also need Paint Shop Pro.  I used Paint Shop Pro 8, but the steps used may also be done in Version 7.  You may download a free trial at Jasc.
 

This tutorial uses Eye Candy 3.1 filter, and a tube of your choice.
 

1.  Open up the tube that you want to use. On keyboard, press Shift +D, to duplicate the tube.  Close the original.

2.  Resize your tube so that the largest dimension is no more than 400 pixels.  In top menu, click Image > Resize.  Set size to pixels, and set largest dimension to 400.  Check all layers.

3.  In top menu, click Image > Canvas Size.  and change width & height to 500, centered horizontally and vertically.

9.  In Layer Palette, click on the top layer to activate it.
