Paint Shop Pro 6

Display Room Tutorial

Paint Shop Pro 6 is an extremely powerful program that will have you addicted in a very short time. The possibilities of this program are almost endless. Feeling that I am still new to PSP, this tutorial is being written for beginners with a basic and limited understanding of its many ways of creating graphics. It is very detailed, so please, do not be intimidated by the long lists of instructions. Some tips have been added that I've learned experimenting and making mistakes (lots of mistakes).

Hope you have as much fun with this as I have had putting this tutorial together.

Remember this!!!   Undo is our Friend.
Open a New Image--560 X 300--White--
Resolution 72--Image Type 16 million-->OK

On the Layer Palette create 2 layers
New Layer---Name it Ceiling--->OK
New Layer---Name it Floor----->OK
  (See Diagram 1 for view of Layer Palette)
   Make your floor layer active.

Selection Tool--Make a rectangular selection of the lower one-half of the floor layer.
(Go to View, check Ruler to make this step easier)

Flood fill the selected area.

Foreground color
HTML Code--Type #DDDDDD

Deselect
Make your ceiling layer active

Selection Tool---Make a selection of the upper one-half of your image,
leaving a thin white area between the floor and ceiling colors.
(We will need the separation later in order to adjust the colors with the layer sliders).

Foreground color---Same as for floor layer.
Flood fill the same as for the floor layer.

Your Image and Layer Palette will look likethis.
