Hey everyone,
So I guess I'll be the first here!
My name is Sergey and as hobby I do different simple extensions and scripts for Photoshop that make my life easier. It takes a lot of work to put those together for others to use so my tempo is slow. So far I got those:

Perspective Tools v2
An extension for creating and managing perspective and ortho (parallel) grids and warping layers using those grids: http://cbr.sh/yae0m

Palettator
Palettator is a floating panel and you can put stuff in it and sample colors: http://cbr.sh/dneqq

Et voilà. If you don't mind I'll be posting here some stuff I'm working on.

the brusherator is looking great.
is it possible to bind brushes to keys? that's one function i've been looking for.

Oct '16

Directly no, it's not possible unfortunately. Photoshop 'steals' focus for hotkeys from panels, you can only get basic things like key-modifiers when you click. If you really want to have this you can look into various 3rd party automatisation solutions, like Autohotkey for Win or Keyborad Maestro for Mac. I use KM basically for the same thing.

I don't want to derail the topic, but you can bind brushes to F1-F12 keys using actions.

@kritskiy_sergey I admire people who can do stuff like this! The perspective tools has been sitting in my want-to-buy list ever since I first saw it.

Acolet, you're absolutely right. I keep forgetting about F-keys because almost all of mine are occupied :D. What I wanted to say is if you want, you can go deeper and bypass PS constraints (like inability of using alt+letter hotkeys, letter hotkeys for scripts and actions and so on) because the number of F-keys is quite limited. I hate routine tasks so I spend great effort on trying to automate PS :smile:
PS thank you for kind words!

Two more things I'm working on because I can't work on one thing and finish it obviously!

Autofill on selection, for fast prototyping

Transformator, clones the layer using paths as guides

@kritskiy-sergey DUDE! I want that Brusherator and autofill selection right now :0~

For the transformator, can you use multiple anchor points? This could be a dope tool for so many different things.

Oct '16

I'm not sure I understood correctly about multiple anchor points. Right now it works like this:
1) first path segment defines original axis of source object (if source is rotated for instance

2) then, all other paths then define position, rotation and scale of the source layer

3) All resulting clones are smart objects so you could adjust them further

I'm thinking of making a panel from this script with options like random scale/rotation/whatever.

For the Brusherator, I think I'll finish it on the next week. Actually there was something I wanted to ask you about using some of your brushes in the demo video, what email can I use to drop you a message?

I was thinking of something like that, where you can use a curve instead of a straight 2 point line?

Also, you can reach me at marc@cubebrush.co!

Ah yeah *sigh
I've spent several sleepless nights trying to figure this out! There're several problems involved and currently I can't find a way to solve those for now. Currently I'm using Shear filter, it's alright for limited arcs but the result layers aren't smart objects + distortion looks weird on non organic objects

So I need to figure out how to build 4 curves from one (some math involved)

And of course Photoshop won't let me use more more than two control points in curves, so no funky transforms :((

Really amazing job dude. Super useful tools.

Keep it up.
