Ok guys this is one plugin you cannot go without!
Get it at www.flamingpear.com/blade.html.
When installing make a new folder in your psp5 directory, call it plugins. Then install the blade pro plugin into this folder. Finally go to File then Preferences then General Program Preferences. Go to the Plugin Filters Tab and make sure plugins enabled is checked in, then hit browse on the first line and point to the plugins folder. It should look like this C:\Program Files\Paint Shop Pro 5\Plugins.
The way this plugin works is you can either make an effect or load one in. The pages I present will have these presets so you can just download them and then load them. To get the effect just make your background and foreground white on a white background New Image. Use text tool to get outline, then go to Image then Plugin-Filters then Flaming Pear then Blade Pro. LOL! That will load the blade pro plugin. Make sure you d/l and extract these files to the Environments and Textures folder that Blade Pro sets up, look for it in the plugins folder in psp5. Then just click on the cd rom with the arrow (there is two of these use the top one to load presets the bottom one to save ones you make).
