Lightning Effects in PS

[GhostfaceKillah]

i was wondering if n e one knows where i can get a tut for making lighning in photoshop?

Thats the best part of PhotoImpact, Lightning comes built in.
On topic, try going to Yahoo! or Google and search for some lightning tutorials. Thats what I always do when I am looking for a tut of some sort.

its called a filter ;/

Not really fm.. its a few filters i think.

get a plain white bg and apply a black gradient on it. Then
render > difference clouds. then adjust > brightness and contrast.

If you like apply a colour hue over that. This is from memory, so it may not be correct.

I assume you are talking about paint shop pro, not photoshop 7. Either that or you have downloaded seperate filters and plugins for photoshop.
