New script – Stacked Wooden Alpha

You can surely create stacks of wooden characters, but it is quite tedious. You have to duplicate each character, and then rotate and move them one by one, then add some thickness AND if you want to add the proper inside shadows, you have to do that on each individual layer.

But the script will do that in just a few seconds. Furthermore, it will change the angle of the wood texture for each layer, making your stacks even more random.

Once done, all the layers will be merged so that the inside shadows are not disturbed.

New script – Cracked Paint 2

If you like the grungy style, this script will help you. It can turn any design, drawing, photo, or any flat element into a wooden item with cracked paint all over.

Every run of the script will yield a different result because the cracks will be in different shapes, and various random areas will be unaffected.

The end result will be left unmerged so you can apply additional effects if you want, or change the color of the wood base.

New script – Inked Edge 2

This script will quickly add an inked edge around any element, photo, or shape for you. It will look like a wet/watercolor ink that was added in three runs. The edges will be uneven all over and slightly more opaque on the very edges.

The inked border will be left unmerged from the base shape so you can actually use it separately if you want for a different effect.

New script – Cookies 2

Cookies script for PaintShop ProOur first script to create cookies was quite popular, so I decided to bake another batch.

This script will create cookies in any shape, whether they are hand-drawn, preset shapes, or letters/numbers. You get five types of cookies: oatmeal, graham wafer, peanut butter, molasses, and jam cookie. And some of those also have additional options, like four types of fillings for the jam cookies and some possible chocolate on top of the oatmeal and graham wafer.

This will be perfect for any birthday party, kitchen or baking theme.

Graham wafers alphabetWhile working on those cookies, I had a craving for some sweets! I created a whole alphabet (A to Z) using graham wafers half dipped in chocolate. I think they look delicious, don't you think? Of course, if you want, you can add some sprinkles too!

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.
