Installing Tubes

Installing tubes can be a relatively painless experience.
The first thing you must consider when downloading tubes from the web, is where to put them
before installing. I found it was a lot easier if I put them in their own seperate folder.
Then onwards to Paint Shop Pro.
Open PSP, and open the tube. It will display just like any other graphic.
The background should be transparent and there is usually multiple images on it.
Go to File>Export>Export Picture Tube.
You will be asked for Cell Arrangements.
The easiest way to figure this out is count the amount of images across the page.
So, if the tube has four images across and three images down, just enter..
Cells Across - 4
Cells Down - 3
Leave all the other settings as they are, but make sure you name your tube in the Tube Name.
Click OK. that's it. Easy as pie!
Sometimes your PSP won't recognise the new tube right away.
The easiest thing to do here I find is to just shut down PSP and then start it up again.
