A new interface template

I have published a new appearance to P2P site. Its new look and feel is better concerning what people consider a "nice and beautiful" site these days. The old look was from 2009 and that time the common sense about web design still was reasonably different. Things change faster and faster.

This task took me a lot of time, because the original CSS was very fragmented and the site is giant. Also it was hard to create a new style without losing P2P identity.

Moreover, a substantial part of the client scripts was refactored and redeveloped. Behind the scenes, the site is different now.

All this means that, if you use P2P frequently or have used it recently, the cache of your browser can make the site look badly formatted and full of errors (old css and old js will not work). Clean all your browser cache if something goes wrong for you.

A new error handling engine was deployed

I released a totally new error handling engine. It was developed from scratch to make Picture to People a better site to use.

This new error catching software can show better information when something goes wrong, so P2P error messages can be much more useful and informative. We also improved the how to use page to explain better several situations many users has trouble to understand.

We have tested this new engine for several hundred hours, but we can't reproduce all possible environments and situations. If you can, help us to fully test this new module. Please, make some use of your favorite online photo editors or online text generators, so inform at our discussion group if you find any misbehavior.

Create 3D sand photo effects online

I have released two new photo effects to turn photos into sand sculptures or drawings respectively.

The online photo editor that convert photos into sand sculptures has an interesting configuration level. It even has two kinds of 3D sculpting styles and the best one depends strongly on the input photo and the style of graphic effect you intend. You can use it at the Sand Sculpt 3D Photo Effect Creator page.

The other online photo effect generator is simpler, but it is able to draw the contours and silhouettes of your photo on a sand ground, so it also can generate beautiful results. Try it at the Drawing Sand Photo Effect Creator page.

Here there is a photo and a 3D sculpture made of sand that was generated by using the first online photo editor cited above.

New blue fire text logo effect creators online

Recently I have published two new fire text effects in our Online Text Effects software that already had hundreds of different text generators, including a lot of fire text effect styles.

Anyway, analyzing the site traffic, I could see a lot of users had been using the blue fire logo effects P2P already offered. This was my motivation to create some new blue fire effects for text.

It can look strange for many people, but creating a blue fire design is harder than creating a traditional fire, because, in the first case, we have much less colors to work with. Below you see an example of each new online blue fire text generator (click a image to enlarge it).

The Online Text Effects page is very big (it has a huge number of text generators), so, if you are interested just in fire text effects, you can go to a page containing just Online Fire Text Logo Generators.
