    Creating product boxes, "e-covers," or whatever you want to call them

    I need to create product box graphics based on images I have made, and the standalone programs that exists for this and that I have seen so far sucks.

    I have Paintshop Pro and so I wonder, are there any
    PSP or PS plugins that are made for this task?

    Any feedback would be appreciated.

    No photoshop?
    SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

        No. PhotoShop plugins however can be used by PSP.

            It is ultra easy, I'm sure somebody with a lot of free time or good spirit will make you an action for free.

            Not me though;)

                Yes, except that I would require the box to also have 3D lighting. The finished box in that tutorial is equally lighted on all surfaces.

                Here's an example of what I want to do:

                (ignore the external shadow, I don't need that)

                  I know you can manually build such a box in PSP with perspective, resize, light source, etc, but due to the fact that I need to create many such boxes I need speed and consistency. They also need to look good. Therefore a plugin would be the best option.

                      This is what I have so far....



                      Can you tell me how to apply a texture to one surface of the box only, and then render the box into a graphic (and not a 3d file)?

                      Thanks.
