L Chan's Paint Shop Pro 7 tutorial thingie.


To begin, install the program.  I'm sure you can figure that one out.
Once you are past that point and have done all the restarting crap,
open the program. Erm, go to the Start button in the corner and look
though the program list for the Jasc folder, or simply double click
the desktop icon.  Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can handle that.
