- Description
- The PaintShop Pro Picture Tube file, with the extension .psptube, is a specialized image file format used by Corel's PaintShop Pro, a popular photo editing and graphic design software. Picture Tubes are essentially collections of images or graphics that users can apply with a brush tool to add multiple instances of those images to a project, creating decorative effects, patterns, or scenery. They are often used for adding embellishments, themed graphics, or repeated elements to digital art, scrapbooking, and web design projects. The flexibility and ease of incorporating artistic elements through Picture Tubes make them a favorite among digital artists and hobbyists for enhancing their creations.
- Image file saved by the Krita painting program. A Krita file is a zip archive holding the full layer stack: each layer's pixel data as compressed tiles, its name, position, opacity, blending mode and visibility, plus a merged preview of the whole image.
