Hi,
Over the past 8 years of writing actions/scripts, then consolidating everything via a VB.NET program, I've now
released to Open Source a program that manages a photo booth stream of incoming images, through Photoshop,
to create all sorts of layouts, animated GIFs, with user input text overlays (for newspaper layouts, etc). It directs
Photoshop to make prints, gifs, and also sends email, text messages, and copies the output image to a cloud
sync folder, etc. It works with CS2, CS3, CS4, CS5, CS6 and CC.
Here's the Github repositories -
There are many different layouts that can be created, for example..
This is a complete on-site printing program as a great demonstration of driving Photoshop via javascript from a 3rd party application.
Start with the PhotoBoothMgr. Study the README.MD for installation details. Let me know what you think!
