New release – Gold Chain tubes

August 4, 2018August 19, 2010 by Cassel

Did you like the rope tubes that were released in the last few weeks? But i am sure you would love to have something more sophisticated than ropes, right? So, how about some gold? These tubes will let you create fantastic necklaces, bracelets or any other precious elements. Use them in straight lines, in freeform, along a path or around a shape. You get 10 different tubes. Use the default settings to get the look like in the preview or change the step or the size for different looks. The zip also includes one flare so that your jewellery can really shine!

You can find those in my stores: Creation Cassel and Do It Digi.

For a chance to win this set of tubes, go add your name to the RAK thread at DST here. (now… if you are not a PSP user and want to join in the fun anyways, go add your name; you might not win the set but you might win something else *hint*hint*)

New script – JPG Bleed

August 4, 2018August 14, 2010 by Cassel

If you ever wanted to print your layouts either for individual pages or in a photo book, you needed to know how to add some “extra” margin around your design. Have you ever wondered why printers will ask you to add some margin, just to trim them after? To put it simply, it is too hard to be perfectly exact when trimming the paper, and if the cutter is just a few pixels short of the edge, you will get a tiny unsightly white line along that border. Having the paper or the design wider where the printer can cut in, will make sure that there is no such white line. But what if you dont add such a margin (called “bleed”)? The risk is that it will trim INSIDE your margin and you MIGHT loose some details if they are on the edge (like fine borders, journaling, etc.).

All that to tell you why it is important to have a bleed around your pages before you send to print. But what if you did your whole layout, and forgot to add the bleed? If you still have the layered file, it should be fairly easy to enlarge the background paper while leaving the more meaningful details intact. But what if you do not have those layered formats, for whatever reason? This script will take any jpg image and add a margin around it, in matching colors. You even have the option to choose different margin for each side so that you can match the specifications required by any printing service.

Someone mentioned that she had made paper scrap pages and photographed them. Of course, this will give only a flattened image, with no margin. This script would be perfect for her, dont you think?

This script is available in my stores: Creation Cassel and Do It Digi.

Twisted Ropes – Picture tubes

February 26, 2017August 6, 2010 by Cassel

This is my third set of Rope tubes. If you are a regular PSP user, you know that directional tubes will allow you to literally “draw” wherever you want, however long you want. Just doodle with the tube and you will get a rope along the way. You get 10 different types of twisted ropes, mostly neutral kinds.

These tubes work with PSP 8 and up.

They are available in my store: Creation Cassel.

cass-TwistedRopes-samples And here is your free sample. This set includes 3 PSD layered files with shadows in separate layers if you want to use them. They were all made with the Twisted Rope tubes.

You will get one tag tie, one bow and one star frame.

New paths – basic shapes

August 4, 2018July 30, 2010 by Cassel

Last week, i released a script that allowed you to write within the boundaries of a preset shape, but this week, i am providing you with two sets of such preset shapes. The templates are identical, but the path has wider or narrower spacing and you can choose either one, depending on whether you have a lot to say or less. Although the Text Wrapping script is only working for PSP 9 and up, these path can be used starting with PSP8. They can be used with the script (if you have PSP9 and up) but they also work on their own, if you follow the detailed directions included. It is a bit more tedious, but at least, you CAN do it now, unlike before, since PSP does not have that feature available on its own.

Each set includes 12 layered templates: one layer is just a template that you can use or not (that is your option), and the other layer has a Path object that you will use to type your text on so it stays inside the boundaries. You do not have to start at the very top either. If you decide, say, to start on the third line, and use only the bottom part of the path, it is fine. You can also resize the path/template if you find it too big (they are all about 3000 pixels in height), or stretch/narrow it if you find it too narrow/wide for your need. (just make sure you do not flip it or mirror it as you will get pretty odd results!)

These sets are available in my stores: Creation Cassel and Do It Digi.

And if you want a chance to win those, check the Happy Place at DST and add your name to the thread. I will draw for a winner on Monday night.

New Script – Text Wrapping

August 4, 2018July 23, 2010 by Cassel

Do you sometimes, wish you could place text within a shape and have the text automatically wrap to the next line? You know that PSP does not have that feature. So, do you find yourself having to add spaces here and there to make the text somewhat fit the shape or the space you want to use? This script will now do it for you. Use one of the multiline shaped paths included (others will be made available soon), enter your text, and run the script. You can modify the size of the shape if you want and the text will fit that size/shape. If you want to add another paragraph, just go ahead. (be sure to read the instructions before using this script for better results and no frustration!).

Available at my stores: Creation Cassel, and Do It Digi.

New FONT – Lace Edge #3

August 4, 2018July 16, 2010 by Cassel

Now, you can create some delicate edges on any element you want with this Lace Edge Font. Yes, it is a FONT, so it means that you can use it even if you are not a PSP user. As long as your program can support outside fonts, you can use this one. Being a font, it is a vector, meaning that you can create a border in any size you want, without distortion. Choose the color, the length, follow a path if your program can do that. Use as the edge of a frame, border some ribbons, make it as stitching, the possibilities are endless.

You can grab it in my stores here: Creation Cassel, and Do It Digi.

New Script – Contact Sheet

August 4, 2018July 9, 2010 by Cassel

This script falls in the category of TOOLS. If you are a digiscrapper, you might want to be able to have a visual catalogue of the content of your kits. If you are a designer, maybe you want to provide such a catalogue to your customer. If you are a fan of photography, maybe you want to have some thumbnails of all the cat photos, the vacation photos, etc.

You have several options to choose from but you can include: full path of the folder, frames around the images, shadows, filename. And the script will create (and number) as many pages as needed to display all the graphic files in the folder. It will generate a preview of files with these extensions: jpg, png, psd, psp, pspimage, tiff, wmf.

This script is available in my stores (always on sale until Sunday night): Creation Cassel, Do It Digi.

If you want a chance to win this script, check out this thread at the DST forum and add your name. A winner will be picked Monday night.

I Just joined Facebook – come join me

July 3, 2010 by Cassel

Yup, you saw it right. I joined Facebook. I am still getting used to it as it is a totally new concept for me. I am not familiar with those “social network” sites as i usually dont have time to devote to that. I am too busy coding scripts, and such.

I am sure many of you are already used to Facebook and you know your way around. Just join me and let’s see where it will lead.

Click here to reach my fan page. I wonder how long it takes to reach that 100 fans milestone. Why not help me reach it? Click on the image to find my fan page. See you there!
