New script – Slats

Slats script for PaintShop ProUsing slats on a photo is a unique way to showcase it, but it can be tedious to create manually. Furthermore, if you want to showcase a particular area of the photo without cutting it off, you can no longer use a ready-made template as it might not suit your specific image or size or preference.

This script will create slats but you will start by setting the "untouched" area and the slats will be added left/right or up/down that main selection. And you get more options for the creation of those slats. Finally, the script will also add a set of frames that you can keep or not, or customize with a different color, with additional effects, etc.

Get this in the store: Slats.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us whether you have ever used slats before (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!)

Slat template for PaintShop ProFor a sampler, I created this template for you. It will help you showcase an element that would be off center. You can mirror it too, if your element is on the right.

You can change the color of the frame, add a bevel or other textures. You can add shadowing if needed.

For the background, you can simply use a solid color from your image or a pattern that matches. Or you can duplicate your photo and move that duplicate to the "background" layer and play with the opacity, the color, etc. for another unique display.

New tubes – Crochet Lace Tubes 4

Crochet Lace Edge picture tubes for PaintShop ProThese crochet lace tubes will allow you to create edges of any length you want, and even add some wave to it (not too much as it would distort the design). Once you have your straight (or almost straight) lace, you can turn it into a frame, or just add it to a cluster along with other decorative elements.

Crochet lace frames in PNG formatAs a sample, I created two frames using two of the tubes included in the set.

They are in PNG format, and you don't have to import them anywhere into your PaintShop Pro; just open it on your workspace and add it on your project. Easy!?

New Script – Gradient Creator

Gradient creator for PaintShop ProCreating a gradient might be simple but creating a specific one to replicate an effect you see on an image might be tricky.

New script – Bread #2

Bread slices script for PaintShop ProSummer is coming and the thought of fresh sandwiches is on everyone's mind. Although you can have a family barbecue (and use the Hamburger script), you can create slices of bread in various shapes with this script. You can choose between 4 types of bread: white, whole wheat, rye and multigrain. So there is something for everyone in the family.

In addition, you can choose to have a thick or thin slice, since everyone's preference is different.

New script – Dirt Texture

Dirt Texture script for PaintShop ProWe might sometimes, want to showcase some photos of messy kids (ours or even ourselves).  What better way than have a "dirty" element, complete with a splash of mud on the side?

New tubes – Variegated Strings

It might be fairly easy to find single color tubes to create a string. In fact, there is one that comes (or came) by default with PaintShop Pro. Strings with two colors can also be found (in the store) but they are much less common. But for variegated strings or ropes, this one is a first as far as I know.

As you draw with these tubes, the colors will change as if you were using traditional variegated wool to knit a project.

New script – Framed Mask

PaintShop Pro script to create layered framed maskI have seen various masks made from apparent chaos of random frames while allowing the display of a single photo through all those frames. I knew how to create those manually, but figured it would be simpler for PSP users to have a tool to do all the work for them.

This script will allow you to either start with a "blank" project where all the frames will cover the center area of a full-size 3600x3600 image or use an existing photo, sized and placed in a specific location of the project and have the script create the frames over that photo. The options are numerous as you can create between 1 and 36 frames to cover that area. In the end, you get a layered template with a Mask group where you can just put your photo. No measuring, no drawing.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us if you ever used or created a similar type of mask for your project (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!)

Layered template in .pspimage formatAs a sample, I am giving you the same template created in the preview. It has unmerged layers so you can add shadows on the frames if you want, you can merge them all before adding shadows or add them individually. You can also change the frame colors, add a bevel, or tweak them as you wish.

What will you do with that?? I hope you show off your project.

New script – Heart Candies

Heart Shaped Candies script for PaintShop ProNow, you can create as many heart-shaped candies as you want, in any color you want. And they will also have random saying on them. With additional random features integrated into the code, each candy will likely be slightly different from each other.

Choose the color (or maybe a gradient?) to match your project or your photo.
