STEP 1 - Supplies

Unzip Script17_Tripleframe.
Now find where the folder MY PSP Files is for your version of PSP. It is generally under
Local Disk (C:) > Users > YourName > My Documents > My PSP Files.
Inside there will be lots of PSP sub-folders.
Put the script Script17_TripleFrame_Stef'sScrapkits. PspScript in the Scripts-Restricted folder.

Otherwise in your PSP, look under File > Préférences > File Locations and navigate to Scripts-Restricted to see where the folder is in your version of PSP.

Also add the other script HGG_postage-stamp.

Place the two Selections: Script17_Tripleframe_inner_Stef'sScrapkits.PspSelection & Script17_Tripleframe_Scalloped_Stef'sScrapkits. PspSelection in the Selections folder.

Put the tube GreyRope.PspTube in the folder Tubes à images.

Open Paint Shop Pro. If you don't see the Script window in the Tools bar, you will have to make it show.
Click on View > Customize > Toolbars > Script > Close.
The Script window is now visible.


 Click on the little arrow "Select Script" next to the menu. I have marked it in red.
A window will open. At the top, under Categories, select Restricted-Scripts.
You will see all the Restricted-Scripts that are installed.
Select Script17_TripleFrame_Stef'sScrapkits.



Check that the option "Toggle Execution Mode" (1) is pressed in.
Then click on the arrow Run Selected Script (2).
