Any scripts of this sort?

[terrypin]

I occasionally like to add an end title to finish a family holiday video, like these examples:

(The letters T, H, etc fly from off-screen into their respective positions and typically I then slowly zoom out and fade.)

I start by making a collage, probably in Picasa 3, of a large selection of the project's photos. But the next stage, making six text selections in PSP 8, and saving them as transparent PNGs, is time consuming and a bit tedious. Anyone know of an existing script I can use for this please? Or one I might build on (with help - I'm no programmer/scripter)?

It kind of reminds me of one script i have. Not exactly the same as you would need a template first:

However, if you want to make the collage quickly, you can use this one:
http://creationcassel.com/store/index.p ... cts_id=190
And flatten it all to have a single layer,
and then, to create the word on it, just (1) create the text you want as a vector, (2) adjust the size and such, and then (3) go with Selection > From vector object.
From there, you can copy and paste that selection onto the page you want to use. The collage is usually the long part. The text is quick.

Thanks, I'll consider those.
