Any resemblance to other tutorials on the wide web is based on mere coincidence.

Leave the names and watermarks of tubes and other material intact.
It takes a lot of work to make this.
Please respect this.

I also thank everyone for their tubes and materials that I can use in my tutorials.

Color pallet
If you work with your own colors, create your own color palette using the alpha channel,
so that you can easily switch between your colors.

There are color differences in the different versions of Psp.
Therefore, use the html codes from the color palette to ensure
that you have the same colors. There may also be color differences when merging layers
