This tutorial is for those that have a working knowledge
of PSP. This tutorial was written by me on November 3, 2020 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.
If you would like to share the tutorial, please send a link to my blog. Thank you!
