Lucy Starkiller Review

I got an email recently from Jonathan Timar, asking me to review his 'Lucy Starkiller' Photoshop / PSP script.

Here is an excerpt from his email:-

Hi Jordan,

My Name is Jonathan, I run the blog known as "The Limelight", at http://inthelimelight.net. You may remember it, as you have visited a few times and even left a comment or two.

I am also the creator of the Lucy Starkiller Photoshop Action (and Paint Shop Pro script), which is essentially a no plugin required response to the LucisArts/Dave Hill "look" craze. It became quite popular, especially early on when I was actively promoting it, and most users have been very pleased with it.

With that in mind, I was wondering if you would be interested in reviewing it on your blog? .....


Thanks Jordan,
Jonathan Timar

I would just like to start out by saying that I am long time user of Paint Shop Pro (Currently Paint Shop Pro Photo X2), and at the very least, I think it is great that someone is catering for the Paint Shop Pro users amongst us...

Anyway, without further ado, here is the review...

Installation is simple. Just copy the .pspscript files into your 'trusted-scripts' folder on your PC.

Then it is just a matter of running your chosen Lucy Starkiller script as you would any other Paint Shop Pro script.

Here are some sample images:-

I think the results look really excellent, and require absolutely no effort at all on your part (have you ever wasted hours trying to make a photo look a little bit better??).

The best part is that the script (for Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro) is only $15.95, and Jonathan is currently offering a couple of special discounts :-

The next 15 people who purchase LSK and use the discount code 'ilovelucy', a 25% discount will be applied. I cannot guarantee how long those will last, but as of right now there are 15 25% off coupons available.

Also - exclusive to readers of this blog - special offer code "mmfplskoctober", gives a 15% discount, and will be valid until the end of October 2009.

If you would like to order 'Lucy Starkiller', please do so at
