- Preparation 2
Set your Foreground color to #cabad8
and your Background color to
#4d2d66.
Replace your Foreground color with a Foreground/Background Gradient - Linear
Materials:

INFO: It you use your own images or tubes, make them the same size. !!!
Note: This tutorial is made with X8, but can also be made in other PSP
Versions, if not please let me know. In previous version some Blend Mode
effects can be different
In PSP 14.15 & 16 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. Please install the script
Click Here
From X7 is the original Mirror and Flip option available again.
