Pictctrl images

Hi,

I don't know the first thing about creating images or how to use Photoshop, but I want to try out making a basic UI for a synth I'm making. Is there a place where people post their toggles, buttons and dials for people to use?

For pictslider images, you can use webknobman or explore their gallery.

You can also use JSUI_UN_KNOB to create [jsui] knobs.

But if you're after basic UI, why not directly using available objects like [slider], [tab], [textbutton], [led], or their live. counterpart?

If you're comfortable with javascript, you could also write jspainter files for existing objects. On this repo you can find pre-made jspainter files aimed to reproduce the original look of the objects as a starting point, from which you can make the modification you want.

Hey heads up, I actually contacted support about this because I was very confused. To my knowledge you cannot make knows with pictslider (hence the name) but with sliders you simply need 2 images. The background, and you fader graphic and that's it. Max does not accept (in pictslider at least) stitched images of the steps. If you want something more complex, the other methods are what you're looking for.
