I have many files in .tub and .psp extension format. Is there a way I can load these into PhotoShop so I can use them? Thank you for your help.

You can open your .psp files in Paint Shop Pro and Save As: and select Photoshop (*.psd) in the Save As Type: to retain your layers (or do a batch conversion). As for the .tub files hmmmmm I know Corel Photo-Paint (as well as other programs) has the equivalent to PSP's picture tubes. In Corel Photo-Paint it's the image sprayer. I am not sure you can convert the picture tube (.tub) files (but I might be wrong ... been known to happen). Photoshop does have a "define brush" and "define pattern" but it's not the same as the picture tube or image sprayer.

What dreamer said, and for the tube files, open them in Paint Shop Pro, then save them as TIF with an alpha transparency channel. Then you can open the TIF in Photoshop with the transparency intact. :)
