New script – Periodical

I have seen someone wear one of those t-shirts where individual tiles spelled out a meaningful word. I was wondering how to create those tiles for any word a user would want. And I did manage to code a script that will use any word you give to generate individual tiles.

The script also allows you to get four different styles with those tiles so they could fit your project.

New script – Counting cards 1

Whether you are doing a "Project 52" or just want to showcase your photos, sometimes, it can be fun to have an overlay to show the week and year of that particular photo.

This script will create a complete set of 53 cards (yes, there is a 53th week in the year, for the few days left). You can choose the fonts, the color, the size, and the format.

All the cards/overlays will be combined into a single file with 53 individual layers, clearly labelled so you can just pick the one you need at the time.

As a sampler, I created a whole set of raster overlays for you to showcase the year 2023. All the layers are in white, but you know that you can change that easily, right? The format is 6x4, which is fairly standard for printing, but also if you are doing pocket scrapbooking.

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 – Triangles 4

This script will let you create a variety of different triangle-patterned papers in any size you want.

Using one of three ways to select the colors, you can end up with a monochrome design, a paper with two colors, or a design made of individual triangles based on a color palette of your choice.

The script will use any active image and will create a separate layer so you can even run the script on a work-in-progress.

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 – Beads Maker 4

Decorated beads script for PaintShop ProAnother script will allow you to create a variety of decorated beads. This time, the beads will be a slightly different shape than the previous scripts. Furthermore, you can create monochrome beads in addition to the duotone ones. Different rotations will be associated with the correct bevel and shadows to give a more realistic effect.

You can create up to 15 beads in one run using up to 6 colors. The script will randomly combine those colors. Keep the beads you like and discard the others.

New script – Swatch Palette

Swatch Palette script for PaintShop ProIt might be easy to create a swatch palette in PaintShop Pro, but if you are starting with a large number of colors, it can be tedious. And referring to the same image whenever you are working on a project can also be annoying.

With this script, you can start with any image that includes the colors you want to use, and transfer them into a color palette available inside your PaintShop Pro. And all that, in just a few seconds. No need to pick and choose the colors or worse, have to type in the hex codes.

As a sampler, I used the color palettes for the next three blog trains in the DigitalScrapbook.com forum and converted them into palettes you can simply add to your PSP. Two versions of the palettes are available: one for versions 9-X6 (identified with V9 in the name) and one for versions X7 and up (identified with VX7 in the name). Unzip the ones you need for your version and save the files (or the whole folder for versions X7 and up) in the Swatches folder of your PSP. Since they are different for different versions, don't put everything in the same place, if you have earlier and older versions of PSP referring to the same content folder. If needed, simply put them in the default folders, in Documents.

New script – Diamond Painting

Diamond painting offers a way to turn an "ordinary" image into something magical and shimmering. It is a long and tedious process.

The script will convert any image (or design) into a diamond painting. Of course, you won't have the physical texture to play with but it will only take you a few seconds to complete.

The zip file also includes picture tubes for the individual "drills" in case you want to add some in other locations.
