October 13th, 2008
 

Sloppy Borders 4 is Now Available!

After a (very) extended period of devel­opment, I’m happy to announce that the next version of Sloppy Borders is now available!

Here’s what’s new:

  • CS3 and CS4 Support!
    The long delay between versions was due to some strangeness in the move from CS2 to CS3, but I’m happy to say that is all behind us now! Sloppy Borders 4 is ready for the future! My testing with the pre-release version of CS4 means that any necessary updates required for CS4 compat­i­bility will be ready lightning-fast!
  • All-New Interface
    The snazzed-up interface is easier to use than ever!
  • Border Files Included!
    Not only will Sloppy Borders continue to work seam­lessly with the borders you already have, but there are 12 new borders included — FREE! This trans­lates into over 100 possible border combi­na­tions with all random­ization options turned on!
  • Bridge Integration!
    Bridge inte­gration means that Sloppy Borders can process just the files you select in Bridge, instead of an entire folder. Cool eh!!

Visit the Sloppy Borders page to see all the details, and some examples too! Enjoy!

ps. To all current users of Sloppy Borders: if you haven’t received your upgrade notice, contact me ASAP: upgrade pricing is good until October 23 only!!

    Bridge inte­gration means that AutoLoader can process selected files in Bridge, instead of an entire folder. Harness the powerful labels and filters of Bridge and burn through them with AutoLoader 3! Sweet!

Proofmaker 3 Has Arrived

October 13th, 2008
 

Proofmaker 3 is Now Available!
After an extended period of devel­opment, and listening to your feedback, I’m happy to announce that the next version of Proofmaker is now available! This new version is rammed with new capa­bil­ities and enhance­ments to the features you know and love.

Here’s the scoop:

  • Presets!
    Presets allow you to save your favorite settings for later use. In Proofmaker 3, you can save as many presets as you like, which makes things like print-processing much easier: save a preset for bordered 4×6, another for 5×7, etc?you get the idea. This was the single biggest request from current users, and I’m happy to include it!
  • Custom Sizes!
    The second most-requested feature is also now included: custom sizes. You can specify your custom size in inches or pixels.
  • Bridge Integration!
    Bridge inte­gration means that Proofmaker can process just the files you select in Bridge, instead of an entire folder. This is perfect if you want to add images to your blog: simply select them and send them to Proofmaker!
  • CS3 and CS4 Support!
    Proofmaker 3 is ready for the future! My testing with the pre-release version of CS4 means that any necessary updates required for CS4 compat­i­bility will be ready lightning-fast!
  • Other new stuff!
    • A Save for Web option that produces opti­mized files for web use;
    • An improved user interface, including honest-to-goodness tabs;
    • Three new print size presets, bringing the total number of presets to 8;

All the details can be found in the Proofmaker page. Enjoy!

ps. To all current users of Proofmaker 2: if you haven’t received your upgrade notice, contact me ASAP: upgrade pricing is good until October 23 only!!

Wendy and Dominic were married by Father Joe at Blessed Sacrament, with a reception that followed at the Sheraton Hotel. We had over two hours of magic time together, so we get a huge variety of images :)
