What do you mean "tried importing it into PSP5 ... with no success."? With my
setup, you import the plugin into PSP5 LE (that came with it) so that once you
have scanned it is *in* PSP. Do you use a Wintel machine and is it different?
I have had a look at your "dewdrops on grass", and the colour and composition
are lovely. But there is blocking in the dark parts at the top; is this because
I have only thousands of colours on my monitor/computer (need more VRAM)?
