Used a tube to make the "Tubes" banner. To get the letters I wanted, I opened the tube as an image in PSP8, then copied each letter that I wanted and pasted it as a new image. Then I opened a new image and copied and pasted each letter into it.
Tube settings: Scale 50; Step 200; Placement Continuous; Selection Incremental Resized to 85%	Tube settings: Scale 40; Step 100; Placement Random; Selection Angular Resized to 85%	Tube settings: Scale 30; Step 150; Placement Random; Selection Velocity Resized to 85%
PICTURE TUBE DIVIDER BARS Up at the top is bar made from the "Gold star garland" tube. Scale: 9; Step 55; Placement: Continous; Selection: Incremental. The other bar is made with the "Pinwheel Violet" tube. Scale: 15; Step 5; Placement: Continous; Selection: Incremental. The bar below is my Hue up/down sample.
LAYERED IMAGE I need a lesson on Screen Capture. I have always had trouble with it in the past, but I have used it once in a while. Now with PSP8, I cannot make it work at all to make a screen capture of the layer palette I took pictures of some day-lilies outside this morning, and used some of them for my layered graphic. I have copied merged and pasted as new image of different layers. My original bottom layer was missing a corner in the lower right, so I added another layer and put it under it. This layer I floodfilled green. Both these layers have the effect Weave on them. I tubed the lily and used two different sizes of it.

PRESET SHAPES In the image on the right, I tried some different gradients, patterns and line styles.
