New script – Bow #20

December 2, 2022 by Cassel

Bow script for PaintShop Pro A simple bow might be all you need for your project, but how do you find the correct one? Using a ready-made bow and colorizing it might work but might also be a lot of work.

This script will use any straight ribbon and cut random pieces from it to create the bow. This means that even using the same starting ribbon, you will have different results.

In the center, you can let the script use the ribbon for the knot or choose a solid color for a contrasting effect.

For a sample, I created three straight polkadot ribbons with holiday colors and ran the script to generate three matching bows. The straight ribbons are also included in the zip file so you can use them separately.

New script – Button Machine 4

November 18, 2022 by Cassel

Buttons can come in many shapes and colors. And they can be so versatile when used in various projects, whether you want to pretend you are fastening photos, or you want to create a decorative element by combining several together.

You can use ready-made buttons, but they might not be exactly the color you want. Or, if you want to turn them, the bevels and lighting are not perfect. But with this script, you can get a series of similar, yet unique buttons. And you can generate up to 20 at one time. Keep the ones you need and discard the rest.

New script – Cogwheels 2

November 11, 2022November 11, 2022 by Cassel

Whether you are into steampunk style, or just like to work with various mechanisms that use gears, creating new shapes might be a little tedious.

This script will offer you the options for the number and types of teeth, and the number and types of spokes. But you can also generate something totally random, in just a couple of clicks and every one of them will be slightly different.

See how you can run the script and how to attach all those gears together:

For a sample, I created a frame using various cogwheels generated by the script. I resized them, added a texture using Filter Forge, added a bevel, and shadows. I also had fun adding chains to connect those wheels.

The download includes a pspimage format with a mask group to add your photo, but also a simple png file if you don't have PaintShop Pro to open the pspimage file.

New script – Line Painting

October 28, 2022 by Cassel

When I was in school, I remember one art class where we had to use straight lines of different thicknesses to replicate a simple image. I was not very good at that, but I would have loved to have this script, which does it in just a few seconds.

Starting with any image, the script will reduce the number of colors and change it to greyscale to determine the brightness of each section and then fill those sections with straight lines in different thicknesses. In the end, you get various options to finish the project. You can use those line paintings to display photos that have odd colors, or not in focus, or just as a background for your page.

New script – Simple Frame

October 21, 2022 by Cassel

Sometimes, you just want to add a simple frame to your photo in order to show it off. This script will help you do that quickly, while still letting you choose the colors for the frame and the mats.

You can choose the width of the overall mats and the frame and also decide if you want the mat to be single, double or triple.

Everything is left unmerged so you can add a final touch if you want.

As a sample for this script, I created a set of four frames based on seasonal photos so you get a frame for each of the four seasons. Each frame allows a photo of about 7 inches on the longest side. They are all in PNG format, so they are useful in various graphic programs.

New script – Palette Maker 2

October 14, 2022 by Cassel

If you like the idea of coordinating various elements in a page or a kit, using a set color palette is an easy way to do it.

This script will generate a color palette for you starting with any photo you have. Each color will be displayed as a brush stroke on the right or the bottom of the image. The hex code for each color is optional.

New script – Circles and Spirals

September 30, 2022 by Cassel

You can place elements along a circle or a spiral manually, but it is quite tedious.

This script will take care of all the calculations for you and create that perfect circle or spiral with any starting element. Use beads, pearls, flowers, greenery, hearts, stars, flower petals, etc.

Use the circles for frames, and the spirals for accents.

New script – Paper Fringe

September 23, 2022 by Cassel

In order to create a paper fringe with PaintShop Pro, you will need to cut your element multiple times, and then, warp each piece one by one. But there is a problem: how do you warp one piece of paper without warping the next one? Well, there is a way to do it, but it is tedious, which is why this script will be a time saver.

With various options in the orientation, length, width, and regularity of the slits, there is also randomness integrated into the script to allow for a different result every time you run it, even if using the same settings and the same starting image.

And see what you can do when you repeat the script using multiple strips of colored papers.

As a sample, I created this square frame from four strips of paper that were run through the script, one by one, and then put together to make the frame. I added a little contrasting border to add some interest. Now, you can showcase your favorite photo.

New Script – Paper Strips

September 16, 2022 by Cassel

Sometimes, it can look interesting to have a series of paper strips of different colors or patterns to serve as a background for a project. However, that can be tedious and time-consuming.

This script will just do that for you in a very short time, using your papers, and your options, sprinkled with some randomness too. Every run of the script will yield a different result, even if you were to use the same papers and the same options.

As a sample, I chose to create a series of strips, aligned to the bottom, and turned them into a template so you can use it with your favorite papers. These strips are grouped so you can copy and paste them onto your project in one step (instead of copying them one by one!).
