New picture tubes – Two-Tone Chains 2

by

After several years, I just released another set of two-tone chain picture tubes. As usual, you can use those tubes and place them freely with your cursor or place them evenly with the VectorTube script.

Create frames, lose chains, alphabets, and more.

New script – Alpha-tags #4

by

Give your titles and captions a fresh, playful look with tab-style labels made in just a few clicks. Pick a base color for the whole set, add one or more accent colors (texture optional), choose any font and text color, then select a side detail—lines, dots, or arrows. The script keeps everything tidy by auto-sizing wide or tall characters, and you can decide whether the letters stay perfectly aligned or get a subtle hand-placed wobble.

Generate full alphabets, numbers, short words, and matching blank tabs you can type on later. It’s quick, consistent, and perfect for pages, pocket cards, and photo labels.

New script – Stitched Edges #3

by

Although you can add a serged edge on any shape (with the Stitched Edges #1), you can now add a blanket stitch around your elements. Starting with a vector shape, you can choose to have long or short stitches and you can pick any color for the thread. The end result is left on unmerged layers so you can tweak that thread color by changing the blend mode as needed.

You can also add custom textures or puffiness to the element if you want, but it is optional.

New script – Tartan #1

by

Tartan 1 brings the cozy feel of classic plaids to your projects, turning any color palette into a seamless, woven tile in seconds. The thread texture gives a realistic plain-weave look—perfect for papers, backgrounds, borders, and photo mats—so your layouts can swing from heritage tartan to modern plaid with just a couple of clicks.

You’re in control of the vibe: choose thin or bold stripes, go traditional 3-color or wilder multicolor, and pick thin & subtle or thick & dense threads for the finish you like. Generate 1–10 tiles at a time, then click to make more with the same settings if you want extra variations without re-picking options.

New script – Sticky Album

by

This Sticky Album effect brings back the look of classic adhesive photo albums, complete with realistic ridges and subtle imperfections. It’s a fun way to add a nostalgic touch to your photos, or to create a unique textured overlay that feels instantly vintage.

You can keep the traditional diagonal ridges or go for creative horizontal or vertical variations. For even more impact, try using colored ridges to add a playful twist, or adjust opacity and blend modes to make the effect as subtle or bold as you like.

New script – Tinted Silhouette

You can apply a solid tint, use gradients for colorful variations, or repeat the script with multiple colors to build creative overlays.

New script – Text Portrait

by

This text portrait effect is great if you have a specific subject you want to showcase, and even better if the original image has odd colors since this effect can be applied to a black and white version. But you can still keep the original color, choose a monochrome effect, or even a gradient. So many possibilities.

Some text overlays are included in the zip file, but you can also choose your own for an even more custom effect.

Since I cannot make a sampler from this scripts because it would be based on your own photo, I figured you might be able to showcase something for this time of year: first day of school. Do you have photos of your children, grandchildren or other children in your life? You can use one of those datestamp for all those elementary grades.

You choose the colors, and the script will automatically create a perfectly seamless tile in just a few clicks.

You can run the script as many times as you want, using different color combinations each time, to build a whole library of patterns for your projects.
