Ok, I have and use PSP Photo X2. I'm gonna have to do this the hard way since I can't find a definitive list *grumbles* and read off the list of special effects one can do with X2:
3D effects: buttonize, chisel, cutout, drop shadow, inner/outer bevel.
Art media: black pencil, brush strokes, charcoal, colored chalk/pencil, pencil
Artistic: aged newspaper, balls and bubbles, chrome, colored edges, colored foil, contours, enamel, glowing edges, halftone, hot wax coating, magnifying lens, neon glow, posturize, solarize, topography
Distortion: Curlicues, displacement map, lens distortion, pinch, pixelate, polar coordinates, punch, ripple, spiky halo, twirl, warp, wave, wind
Edge effects: Dilate, enhance, enhance more, erode, find all, find horizontal, find vertical, high pass, trace contour
Geometric effects: circle, horizontal/vertical cylinder, pentagon, horizontal/vertical perspective, skew, spherize
Illumination effects: Lights, sunburst
Image effects: Offset, page curl, seamless tiling
Photo effects: Time machine, film and filters, b&w film, infrared film, sepia toning
Reflection effects: feedback, kaleidoscope, pattern, rotating mirror
Texture effects: blinds, emboss, fine leather, fur, mosaic antique/glass, polished stone, rough leather, sandstone, sculpture, soft plastic, straw wall, texture, tiles, weave

One of the best features of Paint Shop Pro in my opinion is the tube feature. Any image can be made into a tube then it can be easily scaled and moved when placed on its own layer.
There are thousands of free tubes online for all different kinds of topics...
I've used tubes to make perfect scaled down images for logos and other applications without the problems you can run into when scaling without this feature. Edges are perfectly smooth, even on curves.
The tube tool is designed to also be used to make a continuous line of a repeated image... using it this way can allow perfect coils, for example.
And you can have multiple tubes in one tube file. This allows for random tubes for one subject, like different colored butterflies, for example.
The Corel Site has this to say about the Tube feature in the latest version (X2):
"Picture Tubes
Decorate your photos with 30 new sets of professionally designed artistic elements. A longtime user favorite, this tool lets you paint on photos with ready-made art that features a variety of themes. For example, add butterflies and beetles to a picnic setting or fill an aquarium with fish."

That description really doesn't give the tool justice... =)

I don't use PSP Photo X2.. I use Paint Shop Pro 7.04. One of the best features of Paint Shop Pro in my opinion is the tube feature. Any image can be made into a tube then it can be easily scaled and moved when placed on its own layer.
