How To Use A Mask


 Notes:
This tut was done in PSP 10 but should work as well in other versions.
Some knowledge of, and experience with, PSP is required.
A trial version of PSP can be downloaded from here.
You are welcome to use my images, or use your own
If any filters are used, please note that if you don't already have them installed that you will have to close PSP, Install, then start PSP again.

Beginner

Supplies:
Mask of your choice

Preparation:
Place your mask in your mask folder - you will have to close PSP to do this otherwise it won't show up then re-open PSP
 
Pick 2 colors - any color

Step 1:
Open a 500 x 500 Transparent image
Flood fill with your dark color
Layers/New Raster layer
Flood fill with your light color
 
Step 2:
Layers/Load-Save Mask/Load Mask From Disk/
Chose or find the mask that you want to use
Choose the setting that you would like to use, there are many choices, below are 2 of those choices:
Invert Transparency


Invert Transparency unchecked


Layers/Merge/Merge Group
Layers/Merge/Merge Visible
 
 
Like I said there are many options just play around with them to get the desired look.
