If you're using PSP, I can give you the very bare basics in this post. The rest is really trial and error.

1. Open the paintkit. (You may need to convert the file in dxtBMP.)

2. Create a new layer.

3. On the new layer, create your paint as desired.

4. Change the properties of this new layer to "Multiply".

5. Erase where you don't want paint.

6. Save your file.

7. Convert to "Extended Bitmap" in dxtBMP.

Done.

Again, this is the VERY bare basics tutorial. Alpha textures and things like that are more advanced, and would take me an hour to type. lol

Great edit, Bob.&&&&&&Google it. &&&&www.google.com
