Hi, im currently making clothes in paint shop pro (pretty new to it)

Only thing i cant work out is how to make collars? do i have to draw them on with paint brush?

Can anyone give me any tips

Also is it best to make your own denim? i learnt how to do that with a gimp tutorial which basically has some tools psp has. But i cant find the diaglines, were can i get a brush to add them streaks you get on denim?

Very appreciated :D

Btw i need stuff thats compatable with PSP Thanks :D x



Oh and 1 more thing, the template i use (chip midnight) is 1024x1024 dimension.

When ive done making something i go to save as and PNG file but i dont no how to change dimensions so when i load it into sl its not very nice. all help is very appreciated thanks

I don't know for sure, but it is surely called something like Image/Resize or Image/Rescale.

Welcome to Paint Shop Pro! I have both PSP and Photoshop. I find PSP to be much more user friendly so I pretty much use that exclusively.


As for collars, you can make them with prims and then just texture them as you would your clothing. Here's a prim collar tutorial to get you started.

To change the size of your item, go to "Image" at the top of your program and slide down to resize. Then you can change the size to 512 x 512 pixels.

Good luck and have fun!

If you cannnot find the brush you want, once you get comfortable with the idea you can easily create your own brushes in PSP. I have PSP 8, in it is.....

Select your target area, then go to "File", then "Save as", then "Custom Brush", Name it
for what it does and where you want it to appear in your brushes palette.

Very easy :D

And if you don't want to use a prim collar - yes, you paint it on. Everything is either prims or painted on.
