What Happened to My Tubes?

 

I get this question a lot.  You have just added some tubes (or gradients, or patterns) and they are not showing up in the drop down menu, why not?

 
You have to tell PSP where to look for your images, whether they are tubes or other things.  Go to File / Preferences / File Locations
A new window will open and on the left is a list of your PSP file types Click on the Picture Tube (or whatever you are looking for) and make sure that you have your program pointing to your My Documents / PSP Files / Picture Tubes  folder.  If not then you need to add that location. 
 
 
Once you have done this close your PSP program and restart it.  The tubes in this folder should now show up in your drop down menu.
