This tutorial was created with PSPX9 and translated with PSPX2 and PSPX3, but it can also be made using other versions of PSP.
Since version PSP X4, Image>Mirror was replaced with Image>Flip Horizontal,
and Image>Flip with Image>Flip Vertical, there are some variables.
In versions X5 and X6, the functions have been improved by making available the Objects menu.
In the latest version X7 command Image>Mirror and Image>Flip returned, but with new differences.

You can change Blend Modes according to your colors.

In the newest versions of PSP, you don't find the foreground/background gradient (Corel_06_029).
You can use the gradients of the older versions.
The Gradient of CorelX here

Copy the script Airbrush and ink in the Restricted Scripts Folder.
If you have problems with this script, use the file "imagem com script rodado".
Begin the tutorial from this image.

1. Open a new transparent image 1000 x 700 pixels.

1. Set your foreground color to #ffffff,
and your background color to #7daad1.



Set your foreground color to a Foreground/Background Gradient, style Radial.



Flood Fill the transparent image with your gradient.
