Paint Shop Pro X2

[kayeb Profile Private message]

Does anyone know of a good tutorial site for Paint Shop Pro? I am wanting to learn how to make a sparkle and how to make photo edges curved.

Hi there,
Some basic tutorials and tips and tricks, can be found at Corel's site:
http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/ ... 2796555465

As a general rule, most of the Photoshop tutorials can be applied in PSP one way or another. The terminology is different, but it can be understood.
I use Google to find tutorials. Tutorials made for older versions of PSP can be used as well.

The help file of the program itself is very good and has specific instructions on how to use every tool.

For the photo edges curved, I learned this here, in this forum, from Sheldon's post, here:
viewtopic.php?f=24&t=7214
Go through all his tutorial, it is very well written. Read my posts as well.
The tool that does the bending in PSP XII is called Mesh Warp (at the bottom of the tools).

Hope this helps,

Hi Kaye,

If you are after a page curl effect, it's built into PSP.

Or if you are interested in some scripts, this web site has a number of them (50% Freebies)

Thanks for the different sites. I haven't had a chance to try the curved photo effect yet but your help by giving me these sites will sure get me started. Thanks again.
