How can I do this with PSP 8.10 or can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial....I'm googled out 
an example of what I mean is the titlebar and titlebar buttons of this skin by STJ https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=1&SkinID=4163
Thanks for any help.....I really want to learn to do this glass thing

Hi FM thanks for the link...mostly to do with PS. I have found tut's on aqua buttons/pills for PSP, but they don't have that wet paint/glassy sheen over and existing image effect....like a freshly waxed car

Yeah, they're all photoshop tuts but I figured they could be translated to PSP. I've never used PSP, so I wouldn't know. Here's the tut that started me down the road to skinning. All I wanted to know was how to make a glass sphere and before I knew it I was skinning anything with a pixel.

Again, it's photoshop, but hopefully you can translate it to PSP. It's also for a sphere only but with a little tweaking, the techniques can be applied to other shapes.

Try this site for some PSP tuts. Look for engraved button, same principles, just add color

Or try this aqua tut http://www.zimmertech.com/tutorials_psp.html
This might work as well, maybe the best one yet
