Fixed

  • Paint Shop Pro brushes now actually get thumbnails, and picture tubes are no longer blurry.

1.2.0 added the Paint Shop Pro file family, but it could only read a preview that was stored as a JPEG. Two things were wrong with that:

  • .PspBrush files never store one that way. They keep their picture as compressed (LZ77) data, so brushes ended up with no thumbnail at all — the format was registered, but nothing appeared.
  • .PspTube files keep a tiny 80×80 thumbnail next to their real full-size picture. SageThumbs was finding the small one, so tubes were being shown at a fraction of the available detail.

SageThumbs now reads the compressed picture data inside these files directly and always picks the largest image available. Brushes work, and a tube shows its whole contents crisply — a 900×900 tube renders at 900×900 instead of an upscaled 80×80.

Added

  • .tub — the legacy picture-tube extension used by older Paint Shop Pro versions.

Both fixes came from a community report with sample files. Thank you.
