This tutorial was
written for those who have a working knowledge of Paint
Shop Pro.
It was written by me on November 30, 2009 and comes from
my own creativity. It is meant to be
only a guide and you may make make changes, add to it or
subtract from it to make a tag
that is uniquely yours. While I retain the copyright to
the tutorial, any tag you make is your own,
and you can do with it as you wish.
Any resemblance to another tutorial is a coincidence
and
certainly unintended
