NOTE: With the next instructions for the WARP effect....
If the result is not the same as the example after doing the effect,
you may have to save your image as a .psp image,
close PSP and close all open pages/folders etc
and REBOOT your computer.
Then reopen PSP and your saved image and try the effect once more.
