gradients etc for PSP

Hi,I was going trough this great tutorial(http://www.livejournal.com/users/starrysummer/106654.html) and it is a bit harder for users of PSP,and since I'm still learning how to use gradient and stuff.. I was wondering if anyone knows of a good tutorial for gradients and all that color stuff for PSP8,any PSP since it's easily translated.. thanks a bunch. :o)
