New script – Engraved Metal

Engraving metal can be a way to customize a variety of elements and this script will help you achieve that.

You can start with any black and white design (with clean lines) and convert that shape into one of four metals: gold, silver, bronze, or brass. Any black section will then be engraved in the shape for you.

Each run of the script will yield a slightly different result unless you choose to edit the script to set specific values to repeat the settings multiple times.

For a sample, I created a set of gold alphas pieces that can be used for titles or as initials. Each piece is just under 500 pixels in size so you can resize them as needed.

New Picture tubes – Diamond Chains

Many years ago, some gold and silver chain picture tubes were added to the store and they were a hit as they were among the most popular new directional tubes. Over the years, different types of chains were added and this time, we wanted to add some bling to anyone's project.

These new picture tubes are from diamond chains. Various designs include a variety of diamond-incrusted chain links.

New picture tubes – Gold Chains #2

Gold chains picture tubes for PaintShop ProI released the first set of gold chain picture tubes over 10 years ago and they were VERY popular especially since those were totally new among the PSP tools. Today, I created another series of gold chains picture tubes. Those are mostly double-links chains.

You can "draw" with them with your cursor however long you want them and in any free-form shapes. If you want to add them precisely along a specific path, you can use the VectorTube script, available in the store too.

Gold Chain Frames in PNG formatAs a sampler, I created a vector shape with wavy edges and ran the VectorTube script to place the gold chains neatly along that edge. For the double frame, I used the same method to create two "matching" shapes and then used the interlacing technique to give the frame that twisted appearance.
