Subject: PSP 8 Make oval image and put imagesI

Question
Hi,
How do I make an image-picture into an oval in PSPS 8 ?
Also all the nice tiles and backgrounds where do I put them, which folder?  Some say fills, tiles, backgrounds.  I have made folders outside  PSP 8  on my hard drive C: and know how to find them.
Thank you very much for your time and much needed help.
Regards
Phylis

Answer
Hi Phylis,

Thank you for visiting AllExperts with you query!  There are several ways to make an oval image.  To answer that can you first tell me more about what you had in mind?  Are you trying to make an image with an oval overlay, like a picture frame?  Are you trying to create an oval with a 3D appearance? Or are you trying to create a 2d oval image on a transparent background?   

There are a few different folders to place your tiles.  Begin by navigating to your "My PSP Files" folder.  Your path should resemble this:

     C:\Documents and Settings\UserAccount\My Documents\My PSP Files\

Now you will find a number of folders.  The following is a guide for what to put in each folder:

Brushes - PSPBRUSH & ABR & JBR files can be *imported* here      
Bump Maps - BMP & PSPIMAGE & JPG  file types can be added here
Deformation Maps - PspDeformationMap  file types can be added here
Displacement Maps - JPG & BMP file types can be added here
Environment Maps - PSPIMAGE & JPG  file types can be added here
Gradients - JGD file types can be added here
Masks - BMP file types can be added here
Patterns - PSPIMAGE & JPGS file types can be added here
Picture Frames - PSPFRAME file types can be added here
Picture Tubes - PSPTUBES file types can be added here
Preset Shapes - JSL & PSPSHAPES  file types can be added here
Presets - PSPSCRIPTS  file types can be added here
Scripts-Restricted - PSPSCRIPTS  file types can be added here
Scripts-Trusted - PSPSCRIPTS  file types can be added here
Selections - SEL & PSPSELECTIONS file types can be added here
Styled Lines - PspStyledLine file types can be added here
Textures - BMP file types can be added here

Thank you,
Trinity Chi
