I purchased and downloaded Mystical Tint Tone & Color and want to use it as a plug-in with PSP9. I've never used plug-ins before. What do I do to enable me to use it with PSP (which supposedly supports it)?
I'd appreciate any help someone may offer!!!
Please don't let me be a thread-killer here; I really need some expertise advice!

I'm not positive because I haven't tried yet with PSP9, but when I had PSP6 you had to install it in the plugins file of PSP. I checked and there is a Plugins file in PSP9 so I would try that first. You can also try going to the jasc site and searching their database for how to do it.

Adding plug-ins is easy. In my old PSP 7, all you had to do was install the plug-in program in a certain folder in the PSP directory. My new PSP X will allow you to access the program wherever it's located thru a "add plug-ins location" feature under File > Preferences. Not sure which system 9 uses but you should be able to find out everything you need by doing an index search for "plug-ins" in the Help Topics.

Hmmm, I might have to go to the website, because I did try to install it in the plug-ins folder but then couldn't find any of the effects on the menu when I wanted to try it out. Thanks! |

Did you re-start PSP? Possibly even reboot your computer for it all to take effect. |

After you have the plug-in installed it should show up at the bottom of the drop down menu under Effects.

From PSP Help Topics on Plugins:
"Setting Plug-in Locations
Paint Shop Pro allows you to use Adobe compatible plug-ins. Use the File Locations dialog to choose folders containing plug-ins and control how plug-ins are used.
To control plug-in functions:
Choose File > Preferences > File Locations to open the File LocaÂtions dialog.
From the File types list, select Plug-ins.
Set these options:
Enable plug-ins Mark this box to allow Paint Shop Pro to use plug-ins.
Limit Loaded plug-in files to those with an .8B* extension
The .8B* extension is the most common plug-in extension. Clear this check box to load plug-ins with other extensions.
Allow file format plug-ins to request pre-filtering of support file types Some plug-ins can open files that Paint Shop Pro also supports. Mark this check box to allow a plug-in to try to open (pre-filter) the file before it opens in Paint Shop Pro.
To add plug-in locations:
Choose File > Preferences > File Locations to open the File LocaÂtions dialog.
From the File types list, select Plug-ins.
Click the Add button. A new blank item will appear in the folder list.
Type the full path name of the folder you want to add or click the Browse button to find and select the folder.
Set the options and settings for listed folders:
Enable Directory Mark this check box to have Paint Shop Pro search for plug-ins in this folder.
Scan Subfolders Mark this check box to have Paint Shop Pro search the folders inside the folder. Subfolders will not be scanned unless the Enable Directory check box is marked.
Click OK."

Ahhhhh, okay, well because I'm now at work, I guess I'll definitely have to attempt to boot up the laptop again when I get home this evening. I tried downloading the program at work but I accidentally interrupted it and now it won't allow me to download another copy. I'm trying to contact the company now. |
