This tutorial is for those that have a working knowledge of PSP. This tutorial was written by me on September 7, 2012 and any resemblance is purely coincidental. I use PSP 9, but any version should work. I do not allow my tutorials to be translated and please do not claim them as your own. My tutorials are for those who have general knowledge of how PSP works. If you would like to share the tutorial please send a link to my blog. Thank you!
