Preparations:

Open the the Tubes and Masks in PSP, minimize to Tray. NOTE: If you are using different colors you might need to colorize

Install the font into the Fonts folder of Windows (uninstall after use, too many installed fonts will slow down your pc)

Double click on the Alien Skin Preset it will install automatically

From PSP 14 and higher 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 There is an easy way to add the old Mirror and Flip options to the Image Menu I have written a tutorial you can find it HERE. From PSP 17 the option is back
