I used this tutorial to make Grace's b-day banner. The result is amazing! I love it!

I'm going to try that tutorial sweetie, whenever i get the time, which will probably be tonight or tomorrow. :-) Thanks for the share its a really cool graphic and will be interesting to see how I can translate that into PSP :-)

Thanks for that I have seen that one before but thats not how I want to make my icon. I'm working on a way but thanks.

Tutorialsphere has a bunch of tutorials organized by program. There are a bunch for GIMP, Photoshop, Paintshop, and Paint Shop Pro.

Anyone point in the direction for paintshop 9 for dummies. I've opened and it's like a foregin language to me. Here's how useless I am with this programme, I don't even know how to resize a photo !!

Ermm, yeah, any help....puleesee !!!
