New script – Jigsaw Puzzle 2

Turning a photo into a completed puzzle might be simple when you use an overlay, but if you want to separate some pieces from the main puzzle, that is much more challenging.

This script will turn any rectangular image (vertical or horizontal), into a 9x5 puzzle with triangular pieces. That is a less common shape for puzzle pieces, isn't it? Then, you can identify some pieces that you will want cut off from the main puzzle. You can then move them, rotate them, or delete them completely.

New script – Puzzle 6×6

cass-Puzzle6x6

Do you like puzzles? Do you dream of turning your favorite photo into a puzzle? You can probably do it with some plugins in PSP but most of them do not allow you to tweak, move, rotate, or remove pieces at will.

This script will do just that. Take a square photo and run the script. You can also use a rectangular image, but obviously, the pieces will be somewhat stretched, but it is a puzzle anyway, so maybe it won’t matter too much!

You can grab this puzzling script here: Puzzle 6x6 script.

And remember that you also have the possibility to get other puzzle scripts.

Puzzle 4x6

Do you want a chance to win this script? Post a comment in the box below telling me if you ever created a puzzle from a photo and if so, how you did it. I’ll be back next week with the name of a winner.

cass-MiteredCornerFrame-04As a little gift this week, i obviously could not create a puzzle for you since you would surely prefer to use your own photo than any of mine. So i decided to give you a little frame made of corner brushes and the Mitered frame script. All the details of how i created it, will be in the newsletter.
