New script – Shape Mosaic

by

Turn any photo into a mosaic of repeated shapes instead of simple squares. Choose from a variety of shapes or even create your own for a completely custom result. Each piece keeps the color of the original image, while the shape pattern defines the overall look.

The transparent gaps lets you easily place any background behind it. Try different colors, gradients, or papers to instantly change the style of your mosaic without running the script again.

With adjustable corner cuts, you can easily create a range of geometric styles with various sizes too.

New script – Octagons

The Octagons script for PaintShop Pro lets you generate seamless geometric tiles using the colors from your own palette. Each tile combines octagon shapes with small diamond connectors to create bold, repeating patterns perfect for scrapbook backgrounds and digital papers. The script randomly varies the grout thickness, diamond size, and color arrangements, so every run produces a fresh set of coordinated designs.

New script – Paper Tree 3

by

Create a fun layered paper tree with your favorite designs!

This script builds each branch one at a time with randomly chosen variations, so every tree is truly unique. Select your preferred edge style, the degree of “droopiness,” optional rotations, and highlights, then let your papers do the rest.

Everything remains unmerged so you can decorate your tree afterward—add glitter, lights, ornaments, or anything you like!

New script – String Tie

by

This week’s script lets you create your own string-tie closures, just like the ones you see on envelopes and notebooks — but fully customizable. You can pick the button shape, the colors, the spacing, and even the angle so the tie fits perfectly on your project. Each run gives you a slightly different result thanks to a few fun random elements, including the loose end.

All the layers stay unmerged, neatly grouped, and ready for you to tweak or drop onto your page.

For a sampler, I created two holiday-themed string ties, using gradients for the buttons. You can rotate them a little, but be careful so that the included shadows would still be suitable.
