Can someone tell me which tool and setting to use to achieve perspective on this type of image so that it has a tunnel effect? The circle (vanishing point) in the center would be the most distant object.
I was able to do it years ago with PSP 8.1 by clicking the dice with one of the tools, but cannot remember which one and what the settings were. Of course I did not make notes because I did not think I would need it again. :roll: Well, 10 years later I do.

Sounds like one of the Effects under the Effects menu. Since you were "clicking the dice" that means a filter window with settings.

Maybe one of the Distortion, Geometric, or Reflection effects.

Effects -> Reflection -> Feedback

Opacity: 93 - Intensity: 74 Offset 0% on both, Elliptical

Thank you for the suggestions. I found that the warp tool was making the image too distorted. It needs to be symmetrical for my project with the circle remaining in the center as if looking into a funnel (or a tunnel). At the moment I am playing with Effects>Reflection>Kaleidoscope that is a step in the right direction, but a bit too extreme.
