Bump Map still crashes Photopaint

Hi Kutty,
.. I've been making my own bump maps for years.

1. As you probably know, a bump appears as a bump because light is
reflected differently from different parts of the bump. It comes straight
back from the surface facing the viewer and is deflected and thus appears
darker from a side surface. See first illustration.

.. I make my own bump map as follows.
3. Select an image to become the bump map. The first illustration is
supposed to act as a guide to what can become a bump map.
4. Run this image through the filter Effects > Sharpen > High Pass.
You may have to do it several times. Most of the image will be middle
gray. "Bumps" appear as darker or lighter than middle gray.
5. Drag the map over to the image which will get bumpy.
6. Switch the merge mode of the map layer to Hard Light (or Overlay).
7. See second and third illustrations. (This bump map was created with the
spotlight effect and
Gaussian noise.)
As best as I can remember from earlier versions of PhotoPaint, this
is what the bump map dialog does.

I'm not sure what your point is.
