In PSP 14 & 15 there is no option for Image - Mirror & Image -  Flip. There is a new option but this does not give the same result except when the tube/image covers the whole image from side to side. There is a easy way to add the old Mirror and Flip options to the Image Menu. I have written a tutorial you can find it HERE

 

Used Colors

#00ffff	#1a2a40	#ffffff	#000000	#00ff00

Note: When working with your own colors, play with the Blend Mode and/or Opacity at your own discretion
