New script – Gradient Text

June 19, 2025February 7, 2025 by Cassel

Selecting individual colors per character is tedious at best and inconvenient in other situations, but with this script, you can choose a gradient and it will sample colors evenly on that gradient based on the length of the longest string of text.

You can have as many lines of text you want, any font, and any gradient for the base. Once the script has completed, you will be left with separate lines of text that can still be editable. You can change the text, the font, the colors, the kerning, the stroke, etc. You can also convert the text to character shapes and manipulate the characters however you want.

New script – Word in Grid

November 15, 2024 by Cassel

It is quite tedious to create a grid of letters to spell out a word, but this script will create it for you, in just a few seconds. And once your template is done, it is up to you to customize it, and replace the various elements with your favorite colors, papers, photos, etc.

You can use a single word, a name, a short phrase, or a date. Beware that the longer the text, the harder it becomes to read it! But you can let your creativity shine!

Once the template is completed, it is up to you to customize each component.

New script – Periodical

March 1, 2024 by Cassel

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 – Echo Text

November 3, 2023 by Cassel

You can showcase your favorite photo with a custom mask based on the text of your choice. You can choose any text, in any font. You can finish the script by editing the original text to something different if you want. You can move that text where you want on the project, whether it is on top, on the bottom, or in the plain center.

This is a great way to add a name, a date, an event, a location, or a meaningful phrase.

For a sample, I ran the script starting with the word "Family" in a fairly thin font, but finished it with a thicker version of the same name, placed at the bottom. This allows you to showcase your photo without interruptions in the middle.

New script – Doppler

July 15, 2022 by Cassel

The Doppler effect is that difference in sound you hear when a vehicle runs in your direction, and then away from you. It is a sort of echo of the soundwave.

This script will create that "wave" on top or on the bottom of any text you provide. You can use a solid color, a gradient or even a pattern. In the end, the main text and the "echo" will be on separate layers so you can apply different effects to it, separately.

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).

As a sample, I ran the script on individual digits starting with a black text. This will allow you to colorize the elements to match your project. To maintain the transparency on these digits while adding color, lock the transparency of the layer, fill with the material you want, and unlock the transparency.

New script – Layered Cutouts

March 4, 2022 by Cassel

If you have some paper-related projects and you need a fun and unique title, why not use a series of layered outline cutouts? Although this might be a bit tedious to do manually, you are in luck as this script can do that for you in no time.

You can have a single color for all the layers, but you can also have a single color, fading to something lighter, layer by layer. You can also have two alternating colors for each layer or completely random colors, based on your choice of colors. You can choose any font you want and write any letters, digits or dingbats.

So many options to use.

As a sampler, I used the fading color option starting with dark green. This would be perfect for any St-Pat project, but it could also be used for titles for a birthday or a papercraft event.

New script – Shaped Text

November 5, 2021 by Cassel

Shaping text can be a tedious task using the current tools of PaintShop Pro because most of the time, you have to use the Warp Mesh tool and this means a lot of nodes to tweak to get a single shape.

This script includes options for 30 different "envelopes" to shape your text. This will be perfect for titles or wordart.

New script – Text Painting

January 29, 2021 by Cassel

You can convert a photo into a painting made with text patterns with this script.

The script will do all the work for you and paint using extracts from Alice in Wonderland. However, you can also use a different pattern or set of patterns (you could edit the script, to use multiple text patterns). You can use a page of binary code, or a love letter. You just have to make sure that you save your patterns in png format so it will give the wanted result.

Once done, you can also change the color of the final result.

As a sampler, I created some gradient digits, from white to red, and ran the Text Painting script on them. I chose to keep the original colors so you have something other than grey. Of course, you can always colorize those digits with a different color if you prefer.

New script – Text Paper

January 31, 2020 by Cassel

If you like to have some text as a background paper, you probably can find some generic text, or some themed ones in specific colors to match a kit, but how about getting something totally unique, with the text YOU want to match your story or your project, in the colors you want to coordinate perfectly? That is exactly what this script will do, allowing you to create custom text paper.

New script – Phrase Cutout

January 12, 2021November 17, 2017 by Cassel

Sometimes, you might want to showcase a word or a phrase in a unique way. Using a cutout is one of those original ways to add a title, a phrase, a greeting, etc.

This script will do all the repetitive tasks for you in just a few seconds. You have total control over what font you want to use, what word or phrase you want to write and what size you want your strips to be. The script takes care of the rest.

Although the strips will be black, you have the option to change their colors as you wish.

As a sample of what can be done with this script, I wrote two common phrases that you might want to use in the next few weeks. The strips are black (the colors are for the preview only) and about 300 pixels high and 4800 pixels long so you can place them in various ways on your project.

These files are in .pspimage format, so can ONLY be opened in Paintshop Pro.
