your work often. I am providing directions for the GOLDEN CARRIAGE,

This tutorial is written in and for PSP Version 7.04 and
assumes you have a good working knowledge of PSP and Animation Shop.
I am sure this can easily be done in Versions with a few adjustments.
NOTE:
It is important when following this selections tutorial, that you are
careful to follow along close in the Naming and Renaming of layers.
This will keep you from getting confuzzled, on what layer is what, as
I will refer to them by name.
