Yes it would, but for PSP9 I don't think there's a way to do it because it
doesn't have a High Pass Filter, and I'm not sure a faux method (script,
etc.) of creating one would work because it wouldn't have the UI to allow
putting in the settings used in the tutorial.

I think, but stand to be corrected, that this translates into Hard Light in
PSP.

I agree with you Trev, that PS has more blend modes and they do work
differently. However, I think Hard Light in PSP would do the job if I
understand the idea behind the resulting images correctly. The process
in the tutorial seems to increase the highlights dramatically, while
also deepening the shadow or darker areas of the image. If that is
correct, and if I read the Help file in PSP 9 correctly, Hard Light does
something similar. I'm not saying it would be exactly the same as the
PS filter, but thinking it would do the job. Anyway, here's what the
v.9 Help file says about Hard Light:
"Combines the Multiply and Screen blend modes. If the color channel
value of the selected layer is less than 128, the Multiply blend mode is
used. If the color channel value is greater than or equal to 128, the
Screen blend mode is used. In general, use the Hard Light blend mode to
add highlights or shadows."
I could be wrong about the effect, but as I don't have the High Pass
filter I can't take some of the images posted on the tutorial site you
posted to test with.
