"This specified file cannot be identified as a supported type"
How can this be opened, I need it.
I have Windows XP

What are you trying to open? Is it a PSP file? Is it from a newer version than what you use?

If it is a resource file like a brush or a tube just move it to the proper file (e.g. My Documents/My PSP Files/Brushes) and it will become available to the
corresponding tool inside the program.
If the above doesn't reflect over your file, it would help if you specified your program's version, the file type you are downloading and the version it is intended for. |

I have tons of 3rd party plug-ins that will work in PSP ( brushes, tubes, PS stuff, fonts, et. ).
If you plan on collecting this type of stuff for PSP, I have a suggestion. Go into Explorer/Programs Files. Create a new folder in Program Files called " PlugIns". Each time you find something you want to use in PSP, make a new folder inside your plugins folder and name it accordingly. Let's say you want to add some new brushes, create a folder called " brushes " inside of the plugins folder, and save them there. If it comes to you as a zip file, save the zip file in the same folder. That way you always know where it is. Open PSP after you have saved them, and point PSP to them: "To do this, open PSP go to File/Preferences/File locations. Click on the plugins folder and on the box on the right browse to where your plugins are on your computer to add this. They should then show up when you restart PSP". ( ya don't have to restart some versions for them to show up ). You can do the same thing with tubes, do as above but click on Picture Tubes instead of Plugins. And so on. The reasoning behind this is it allows PSP to start up quicker, cleaner and it allows you to go back to the Plugins folder and get rid of anything you added without a lot of time trying to find whatever it was you just added, or added several months ago. One other word, if you have a CD Burner, back up your Plugin folder to a disk. If anything ever happens to your PC, all the neat stuff you found to use in PSP will be immediately available on your disk. Ya know, I have typed this recommendation a hundred gillion times, and I couldn't find a link to it here. I keep " sticking " it, and it keeps disappearing.

I agree with you,, thats what i do, i even go one step further and i take out the tubes, frames, and everthing else out of psp itself and add them to the
folder i created, it loads so much faster

That's a move I hadn't thought of, Bob.

Also, by doing that (above), it makes it easier to make adjustments to names of tubes etc, when you get the dreaded "that tube already exists"
message. Oh, and another tip...once you collect up brushes, tubes, gradients etc, make sure to back them up on a CD (or other drive)!
