Mystery tutorial – january 2026
You will find the original tutorial here :
This tutorial is a personal creation.
Any resemblance with another one would be only pure coincidence.
It is stricly forbidden to modify tubes, to change their name or take off the matermarks,
To present them on your sites or blog,
To share them in groups,
to make a bank of images, or to use them on lucrative purposes.
and I’ll try to fix the problem as quickly as I can
I worked with PSP2020 Ultimate
you can follow this tutorial with another version of PSP, but the result might be slightly different
Supplies
Veroreves doesn’t provide any tube or image
You can download the supplies from Veroreves’ website
or by following this link HERE
TIP 1 -> if you don’t want to install a font -->
open it in a software as « Nexus Font » (or other font viewer software of you choice)
as long as both windows are opened (software and font), your font will be available in your PSP
TIP 2 -> from PSPX4, in the later versions of PSP the functions « Mirror » and « Flip » have been replaced by -->
« Mirror »has become --> image => mirror => mirror horizontal
« Flip » has become --> image => mirror => mirror vertical
IMPORTANT
principle of the mystery tutorial :
make the tutorial without a template, just by following the steps
(this is the reason why my tag is placed at the end of the tutorial)
***
duplicate all the tubes and work with the copies to preserve originals
open the masks and mimimize to tray
save your work often in case of problems with your psp
