Plugins:

Preparations:

  • In PSP 14 & 15 there is no option for Image - Mirror & Image -  Flip. 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. Therefore I have created a solution: Download two PSP scripts HERE. Copy the Scripts to the Scripts Restricted Folder of PSP. You can use it as a script in PSP 14 & 15 as a replacement for the Image/Mirror/Flip options.

  • Copy the selection files to the Selections folder of PSP

  • Copy the Preset_BallsAndBubbles_Benice_L168 to the Presets folder of PSP

  • Double Click on the Eye Candy Preset, it will be imported automatically

 

Used Colors

Foregroundcolor: #583227

This translation is written with PSP15 but can also be made with other PSP versions.
