New script – Corrosion

Corrosion script for PaintShop ProIf you want to add a corroded look to an element, how would you do it? If you are using a premade texture, it will likely be always the same one, but is corrosion really the same all the time?

This script will randomly assign a texture, and punch holes throughout the design, so it will always give a different result, just like real corrosion.

Corroded digitsAs a sample, I created a simple set of digits that ended up corroded. You can use those digits to add a date of something that is old or something that seems to be bad.

New script – Bow #17

Bow script for PaintShop ProA variety of ribbons and bows is always a plus for everyone doing scrapbooking. Some bows are large, others are small. Some are stiff, others are droopy. Variety is always needed.

This script will take your ribbon and adjust its size to create a matching ribbon. If the ribbon is thicker than 200 pixels, the script will size it down to 200 pixels before creating the bow. However, if the ribbon is thinner than 200 pixels, the script will temporarily size it and then will resize the bow to match that initial ribbon size. The end result will be on unmerged layers so you can tweak it as needed.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us whether you have other droopy/soft bows in your stash (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!)

Bow in PNG formatAs a sampler, I started with two ribbons in fall colors and ran the script. One ribbon is 200 pixels and the other is 125 pixels so the two bows are of different sizes.

New script – Fire Work

Fire and flame script for PaintShop ProSome photos can use a lot of punch and adding fire is a sure way to add that spectacular effect. Add those flames to an energetic musician, to a hot car, a fast running cheetah. Or you can just draw frames and words manually to get a firey message in the sky.

This script will add random flames to any vector path you will add to your photo. You even have the option to have small, average or large flames depending on the effect you are after.

Heart shape fire frameAs a free sample, I created a firey frame using a simple heart preset shape. I ran the script choosing the option for small flames. If I had selected the larger ones, there would be a smaller area left for the photo.

New script – Cracked Paint

Cracked Paint Texture script for PaintShop ProCracked paint can be used on many drawings, paintings, or writings to give a worn look. You can surely use an overlay, but it is also nice to get a different result.

This script will do just that as it will randomly modify a handful of base patterns to create a worn look of cracked and peeled paint. Just have your photo or drawing active and the script will age a copy of it, leaving your original intact.

New script – Punched Alpha

Punched Alpha script for PaintShop ProYou can create some unique titles and tags using uneven pieces of papers with a cut out letter or digit.

This script will do that for you and will even add some randomness to the whole run. You can choose to cut from any paper you want (or even multiple papers too), you can choose any text, alpha-numerical elements or even dingbats. In fact, you can also ask to generate some "blank" pieces with no cutout so you can use them as "spaces" or to punch or stamp something on your own.

New script – Pop Art

Pop Art script for PaintShop ProHave you ever tried to create a montage of pop art images inspired by Andy Warhol? It uses bold colors and simplistic lines and offers multiple variations on the same colors.

Balloon Twist frame in PNG formatAs a freebie, obviously, there was no way to give you a sample that would suit your own project, so I figured that everyone was quite enthusiastic about the balloon twists frame from a couple of weeks ago so I created another one, in different shape and using a different color. Those balloons would be quite suitable for summer theme projects.
