This lesson is translated by Croidin for us ,

thank you so much Croidin for your work.

Needed:

• I.C.net software / unlimited : here
  
• filter: mura pro seamless : here
  
• masker: LW_mirror_masker_2020.jpg ,
  

Save this mask as jpg-file with a right clicking on your mouse “safe as”. Safe it in a normal folder (not your masks one) and open your mask in PSP as a normal picture.

Preperations:

1. Open your tube.

2. Go to “Image” and then “resize”. Put in 300 at “height” and make sure everything is checked.

3. Duplicate your tube twice with <shift d> and close the original. Hide 1 layer from view, for later on.

Picture 1:

4. Go to “masks”, “new” and “from image”.

5. Search for the mask LW_mirror_masker_2020.jpg. Beware! Do not check the option “invert mask data”.

6. “masks” / “delete” / “yes”, on the question. Hide this layer from view for later.

Unhide the other layer from view.

7. Image / resize / uncheck “maintain aspect ratio” and change width to 1024 and height to 300.

10. Effects / reflection effects / feedback, with these settings:

Effects / filter unlimited / tile and mirror / distortion mirror (horizontal), apply.

**This background is ready.**

13. Open picture 1 (with the mask on it) and activate it.

14. Edit / copy.

Put it on a nice place. With the original tutorial (the Dutch one) this was in the middle.
