This is a little app to make all your buttons for you.
It uses photoshop actions to do all the work, but you can set font colours from within the app.
It also creates any extra "Header" buttons you require, eg Links, Files etc.
It requires Photoshop 6 to be installed, and the photoshop files from the VB Graphics Kit to be extracted directly in C:\Vbutton.
It's written with Visual Basic 6, so normal runtime files are required.
There's not a lot of error checking in this version, but I wanted to get some feedback.
The finished buttons are output to C:\Vbutton\Output.
Have a play and give me some feedback, and any suggestions for the next version.
(BTW. This is my first attempt at a Visual Basic proggy, so be nice )
Minor Update:
Checks that the required VB Graphics Kit Files are in the correct place.
Color Picker remembers colours.
Fixed a bug in the actions for newfolder.gif etc.
Tested and Working with Photoshop Elements
Another Update:
Now does text layer colours
Includes Hot & New folder Icons
Does Icons & Smilies
Output to C:\VButton\images with subfolders for icons & smilies for easy file copy
Deletes action files after use in Photoshop ready for next use
Another Update:
Now uses "sets", where output is under the C:\Vbutton\set folder
Now saves a copy of the modified PSD files for future use
Creates a txt file record of the colours used
Progress window added
Bug fix done!
