New script – Dimension 2

January 12, 2021June 8, 2018 by Cassel

Dimension script for Paintshop Pro You might want to create some kind of extrusion around the edges of your element and play with various thickness, height, and colors. Add those edges around shapes or text for a very unique effect.

Unlike the previous Dimension script, this one will create a "deep" shape or a "thick" one. That is your choice.

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what you would create with those edges (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!) The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).

To play around, I used some text to run the script on. I used gold, silver and bronze patterns for the edge and the inside and outside colors to give the metallic effect of the edges.

To get a better result, I worked on a large text to start since a small shape or text would give a pretty grainy result.

New script – Custom Game Cards

January 12, 2021June 2, 2018 by Cassel

Aside from the typical deck of cards we use to play poker, bridge, or others, do you ever play games that involve a different kind of cards, like Magics, ?

Have you ever imagined having your own photo on one of those cards? Now you can do just that. With this script, you can use any photo, and add the text you want to create a unique card that you can print if you want, or just use on a different graphics project.

In order to win these tubes, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what type of games have you played that involved cards that are different than the typical deck with diamonds, hearts, spades and club (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!)

This week, I created a simple set of four cards for you. They are in .pspimage format which includes the mask to insert your photo without having to cut it or adjust it in any way. Simply put your photo above the layer named "Photo here", and adjust the placement using the Pick tool (or the Raster Deform tool if you are using an older version of PSP).

You can then add the text you want in the label below the photo, and you have some fun cards that you can either print or use in a scrapbook project.

New script – Knot #13

January 12, 2021May 18, 2018 by Cassel

Everyone likes ribbons, bows and knots. They can be very versatile, especially if they match. Finding the correct match is not always easy, but with this script, you can use any straight ribbon and get a simple knot to add to your project.

You can pretend to attach that knot to the straight ribbon to tie around a photo, a present, or just as an accent. You can insert something in the center part of the knot, like a ring or a flower stem.

The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).

To show you what those knots look like, close up, I used three ribbons from a kit, It's Elementary my Dear that you could get at Pixel Scrapper. So you can download these knots and also go for the ribbons too.

New script – Adjustment Layers Group

January 12, 2021May 5, 2018 by Cassel

Adjustment layers are applied to all the layers below them, in the Layers Palette. But what if you want to adjust only one element, on one single layer? You can still do it, if you add that layer into a group that will include that specific layer you want to modify. It takes a few clicks, but with these scripts, a group will automatically be created and the adjustment layer will be inserted. Just fewer clicks than doing it manually.

This is actually a set of 13 scripts; one for each adjustment layer available. And if you are using an older version of PSP that does not have all 13, the script will let you know that your version is not compatible with that particular adjustment layer.

Get this set in the store: Adjustment Layers Group

Oh, and it is FREE too!

As a sampler for this week, obviously, I can't give you anything done with that script, since it is a tool, but since the Plush Texture script was quite popular, I decided to create a fun plush teddy bear.

I started with a bear made of vector layers and I added a plush texture to each of them, then adjusted the colors to give a bit more contrast in some areas.

The whole bear is almost 3600 pixels high so you have plenty of room to resize it to fit your project.

Remember that you can create the same kind of plush element with the Plush Texture script. It is worth the work!

New script – Brushes Library

January 12, 2021April 27, 2018 by Cassel

Natively, you cannot view your brushes from Paintshop Pro when you look in Windows Explorer, so if you want to see what you have on hand, you have to go through PSP itself, and pull down the list of brushes from the Brush tool settings.

Now, with this script, you can get a visual representation that you can keep in jpg format, or print out to keep in a binder.

This script will include the name of the folder, and all the brushes inside that one folder where resides the active bruh, and will also add the name of the brushes underneath. If you need more than one page to display all the brushes, it will add as many as needed to show them all. And for the fun of it, you can choose a different color for the brushes in different folders!

Get it in the store: Brushes Library

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what is your favorite brushes to use (remember, add a comment, not just a Like!) The winner will be announced in the newsletter, next week. In addition, the color choices from the winner will be turned into a free picture tube that will be given to all the posters. Not a subscriber yet? Not a problem. You can register here and it is free (and you only get one email per week).

As a free sample, this week, I made a fun frame using star confetti made with basic colors. The whole frame is 3600x3600 pixels so you can use a single photo on your project. If you want to use it smaller, you can add a solid color border on the edges so you would not see the cut off confetti.

New script – Confetti Maker

January 12, 2021April 13, 2018 by Cassel

Every project can use confetti, either to add a feel of freedom or to emphasize particular colors of the featured photo. But it might be hard to find the exact colors in a ready-made confetti element. This script will really create a unique set of confetti tubes, with the exact colors you want, in addition to various other settings of your choice.

After running the script, you can use and reuse the resulting picture tube as often as you want, to add a little touch of confetti, or to completely fill an area to make a backgroundd.

Always hoping for spring to come, I chose to use some spring-y colors and create a set of rectangular confetti. Maybe it will make spring come faster?

New script – Plush Texture

January 12, 2021April 7, 2018 by Cassel

Plush is often associated with soft toys from our childhood. Adding a plush texture to various shapes can convey that soft feeling to a project.

This script will turn any vector shape into a plush element with your choice of color, but you can also choose the type of plush (soft or coarse) and the length of the fibers. You can get really creative and choose a gradient or even a pattern instead of a solid color.

To give you a little glimpse of what this script can do, I created three basic elements that you can use as is or combine them with other elements. All three elements are in png format and quite large so you can size them down as needed for your particular project.

New script – Decorated Eggs

January 12, 2021March 30, 2018 by Cassel

With Easter coming, you might want to create some holiday invitations or maybe you will want to embellish the photos you will take with the kids running around, looking for eggs.

Creating and decorating eggs, even digitally, can be tedious (at least it is not messy), but with this script, it will take only a few seconds. You can choose various options, whether you want monochrome eggs, or rainbow colors. And with the random function integrated into the script, you will have different eggs every time.

Use solid colors or even gradients or patterns for unique results.

To help you out, I created a dozen eggs that you can use to build some clusters or to line them up at the bottom of your next frame. Using bold colors, those eggs should go well with just about any Easter or spring projects.

You can add some flour on top and even garnish with sesame seeds or multigrain.
