New script – Multiple Confetti

You can create scattered confetti with any image using the Custom Confetti script. But what if you want to use images in different colors, or in different shapes? Of course, you can create one for each but when you will scatter them on your project, they will not "mix" as natually since they will be layered by type.

This script will combine different images together to create a single set of picture tube. You can use completely different images, but you can also use the same image/shape in different colors.

For a sample, I used three spider webs and ran the script. I didn't choose to vary the brightness because I wanted them all in white. You can change the Step value if you want the scattering to be denser or lighter.

New script – Custom Envelope

If you like to create your own custom greeting cards, you might be limited by the size of the available envelopes you have. But now, with this script, you can choose any size up to 10x8 inches. It could be a long and thin envelope, or a large square one.

The script will create the individual pieces in a template format, and will split them in two or three pages that you can print on your own home printer. You can customize each piece as you want with different colors, patterns, gradients, or decorations. You can use the same design for each piece or combine more than one.

For a sampler, I am offering you the template to create a 9x4 inch envelope with a scalloped flap. You can customize each piece to make it a unique envelope to match whatever greeting card you need to use it with. The template is in psd format.

New script – Prefix Renamer

Prefix renamer script for PaintShop ProSometimes, you have long filenames for your supplies and for whatever reason, you would like to shorten them. Doing it manually, one file at a time is tedious to say the least.

This script will let you choose what prefix you want to replace and by what. You can replace a long name by a shorter one, or by some initials. You can even change the name of the kit on all your files if you want. Although I expect you to use the script to shorten the names, you can just change them instead.

New Script – Alpha-Maker

Alpha-Maker script for PaintShop ProIf you like to have a title made from a specific paper from a kit but not have everything too even, you will love this script. It will take only a few seconds to create a complete alphabet with slightly varied designs, shading, and pattern. You can choose any number of papers to create individual letters either in order or in random order.

Other options allow you to add an outline in any color and even to create a squiggled outline.

As a sampler, I used a single paper from a kit called The Good Life, by Marisa Lerin. That paper had shadings of orange so the individual characters are all slightly different since they were selected from different sections of that single paper.

New script – Raster to Mask

If you like to use templates to speed your scrapbooking process, using ready-made templates have some draw-backs and could require additional steps to make them as flexible as you need. And to manipulate them one by one, manually, although it is easy, can be tedious.

This is why this script will be a time-saver as you can quickly convert that raster shape into a mask group, and then, repeat the process wherever you have a layer that is in a shape you would like to replicate with your photo or paper. Then, you have the flexibility to adjust those photos or papers the way you like them.

This week, since the product added in the store is a tool, I chose to create another template like last week, with slats, but this time, you can showcase your little ghosts or goblins from last Halloween.

New script – Gradients Library

Gradients Library script for PaintShop ProIf you want to view your gradients, looking at the little thumbnails in the Materials Palette is not the best way. But if you want, you can now make a larger image that you can even print, to display all the gradients in a specific folder. Make sure you read the instructions because you will have to edit your script before running it.

Popsicle puzzle As a sample, with summer coming, with the warmer weather, I thought you might like a set of fresh popsicles. This is made from the Wooden Puzzle 2 script, and all the pieces are grouped together, allowing you to move the whole set onto your next project. Once that is done, you can ungroup the pieces and move them around, individually.

New script – Dated

Dated script for PaintShop Pro to add EXIF date to a photoSome cameras will automatically add a date on your photo and often, you might want to remove those dates to concentrate on the photo itself. However, in other situations, adding a date might be needed. If your camera took the photo while saving the EXIF information, this script will retrieve that date and add it on your photo. You get to choose whether you want the date on the left or the right of the photo and in which color.

Although adding this date to a single photo is possible and quite simple, the script can also add the date on all the photos in a particular folder. In one run!

Valentine Wooden Puzzle for PaintShop ProAs a sampler, I decided to play with a recent script, the Wooden Puzzle 2, to make you a Valentine theme puzzle. This is a .pspimage (so the file is fairly big) and each element is part of a group, so you can copy and paste it onto any other project, and since all the layers are unmerged, you can move the pieces around as you wish.

New script – Adjustment Layers Group

Adjustment layers group script for Paintshop ProAdjustment layers are applied to all the layers below them, in the Layers Palette. But what if you want to adjust only one element, on one single layer? You can still do it, if you add that layer into a group that will include that specific layer you want to modify. It takes a few clicks, but with these scripts, a group will automatically be created and the adjustment layer will be inserted. Just fewer clicks than doing it manually.

This is actually a set of 13 scripts; one for each adjustment layer available. And if you are using an older version of PSP that does not have all 13, the script will let you know that your version is not compatible with that particular adjustment layer.

Oh, and it is FREE too!

Plush bear sample of the Plush texture in Paintshop ProAs a sampler for this week, obviously, I can't give you anything done with that script, since it is a tool, but since the Plush Texture script was quite popular, I decided to create a fun plush teddy bear.

I started with a bear made of vector layers and I added a plush texture to each of them, then adjusted the colors to give a bit more contrast in some areas.

The whole bear is almost 3600 pixels high so you have plenty of room to resize it to fit your project.

Remember that you can create the same kind of plush element with the Plush Texture script. It is worth the work!

New script – Confetti Maker

Confetti Maker script for Paintshop ProEvery project can use confetti, either to add a feel of freedom or to emphasize particular colors of the featured photo. But it might be hard to find the exact colors in a ready-made confetti element. This script will really create a unique set of confetti tubes, with the exact colors you want, in addition to various other settings of your choice.

After running the script, you can use and reuse the resulting picture tube as often as you want, to add a little touch of confetti, or to completely fill an area to make a backgroundd.

Spring confetti picture tubes for Paintshop ProAlways hoping for spring to come, I chose to use some spring-y colors and create a set of rectangular confetti. Maybe it will make spring come faster?
