EXPORTING or
installing tubes into PSP one at a time can be a real
tiresome task. Remember, usually, you cannot simply
copy a downloaded tube into the Tube folder in PSP,
unless if it is in a certain format. Tubes downloaded
from Barry's Place need not to be
Exported into Paint Shop Pro - Simply Copy & Paste
them into your picture tubes folders. Follow this link COPYING & PASTING
TUBES tutorial to find out more!
If you have any downloaded
tubes in your collection that are zipped, you will need to
unzip them with a programme like Win Zip which
you can get at www.winzip.com . |
| |
| STEP ONE |
In PSP
X point your cursor to the BROWSE icon
or in PSP 9 or earlier, either click on the similar
icon or go to FILE | BROWSE. |
|
| STEP TWO |
On
the left hand side pane in the browser window, navigate
to where you have saved your (unzipped) tubes, on the
right hand side you will see a thumbnail view of the
tubes. Remember if a tube is zipped, it WILL
NOT show in the browser window of Paint Shop
Pro, or Windows Explorer.
We will pretend that my tubes are saved to C:/Downloads/Tubes
and that is where we are going to browse to see the tubes
that we want to export into Paint Shop Pro. |
|
| STEP THREE |
If
you want to install all the tubes that you see in the
right hand side pane of the browser window, SINGLE left
click on any thumbnail image of a tube on the right hand
side of the browser window to make that the active area.
*Then hold down the CTRL key and then
press A on your keyboard. Then you will
see that all the thumbnails are now selected.*
Press
the ENTER key on your keyboard, which
will open all the selected thumbnails as .tub images
in PSP. |
|
| If you only
want to install a single tube - omit the instructions
between the asterisks, and simply double click
on the thumbnail of the tube you want to install.
....OR....
If you want to install selective tubes - hold down the CTRL key
and choose the tubes by single clicking
on the desired thumbnails and then hit the Enter
Key. Now you will be able to see all the tubes,
layered one over the other with the Browser window right
at the back. |
|
| STEP FOUR |
To
get to the Export Picture Tube box as viewed below,
you have two options. You can either point your cursor
to FILE | EXPORT | PICTURE TUBE and
then click in the TUBE NAME field & name
the tube, and click on OK.
....OR....
|
Simply HOLD
DOWN the ALT key and then
type the following letters on your keyboard while
still depressing the ALT key: F
T P U. That will bring you to the TUBE
NAME field with many less tedious mouse clicks!!
Then click on the OK button, or hit
enter and your tube will have been exported into PSP
and ready to use. |
|
| STEP FIVE |
Open
a new image, and then click on the TUBE TOOL  and
you will now see the tube/s in the tube browser window.
Click on the tube you want to use, change the percentage
if desired, click in your new image and your tube will
be displayed. |
