Add Realistic Beef Textures to Your Designs in PaintShop Pro

Want to serve up something unique in your next digital project? With this new Cuts of Beef script for PaintShop Pro, you can turn any shape into a realistic piece of marbled beef, sirloin, or brisket — raw, cooked, or grilled.

This script adds detailed textures and color variations to your shape, and you can even add grill marks for a freshly barbecued look. Just like on the real grill, no two pieces will come out exactly the same — thanks to built-in randomness, each run of the script gives you a slightly different result.

New picture tubes – Fringes 2

New script – Glitches

by

Looking to add a modern, tech-inspired twist to your text or shapes in PaintShop Pro? The new Glitches script offers a fun and creative way to simulate digital distortion effects. Whether you're going for a retro screen error or an edgy design element, this script gives you multiple options to customize the look.

You can choose from three distinct glitch styles—color shift, warp lines, or block shifts—each simulating a different kind of digital interference. On top of that, you decide whether to add colored edges or keep the original image intact. With adjustable intensity and support for both text and vector shapes, this script lets you quickly achieve a unique, glitched aesthetic without complex editing.

New picture tubes – Gimp Trims 3

by

The first Gimp trims were released 13 years ago! But these are slightly different.

You can create delicate ribbons in any length and any shape you want. Use your cursor to draw your ribbons freely, or you can use the VectorTube script to place them along a precise path. Since these ribbons are a little wide, make sure you use a large enough shape and avoid tiny corners and curves.

Get this in the store: Gimp Trims 3

In order to win this script, add a comment on this Facebook post telling us what kind of trim you would like to see as picture tubes (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).

For samplers, I created two frames for you. Each one is made from running the VectorTube script twice on a simple shape. One trim is full size while the inside trim is half-size for an interesting effect.
