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.

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.

Marshmallow Twist frameFor a sample of this product, I created a fun oval frame using the four-color twist along with the VectorTube script to place them along the edges.
