Gimp is far far better, and it all free.

Hi, this Program takes me back to creating 'realistic looking' scenes in..CorelDraw4 (yes, 4!:) back in the second half of the 90-s and exporting these vector images to Corel Photo-Paint4 to obtain bitmaps ready for printing, framing (real frames:) and giving away to friends and family. Thing is there were no tree-trunks, twigs, leaves to our disposal in a handful of tiny presets there, but with artistic imagination and skill I was soon whizzing up trees out of over-stretched grapes, dinosaurs, cauliflowers that no one could tell the difference, so realistic they looked!:)..
Now you can see why I will always appreciate and welcome much more 'up to date' Programs (without mentioning many, many other I used in my artistic journey), such as Twisted Brush Tree Studio. So much ease and fun creating these trees and what's more (working with layers) 'planting' them into any image/photo by merging everything together.
Neat Software! Thanks.

Installation was easy as pie, and thanks to the reg key being in the README file, it registered in just a second! This looks like a fun program! I have been very impressed by the Twisted Brush programs in the past; this one, I'm sure, will be no exception! Thanks very much, GAOTD and Pixarra!

Installed it and it said it couldn't install license key,.. pasted it said it was invalid,.. and then couldn't find quite a few other paths. page 1 .cfg, page 1 .tbr, env file, etc I've tried 4 or 5 times. Win 8, 64 here. Too bad. Looked fun.

Just got the download installed and registered. Opened it and had a quick test run. From what I am seeing it is an excellent program. I expected that it would be because I got Twisted Brush Pro a few weeks ago in a previous Giveaway form this site, and I like what it does also. Twisted Brush Tree Studio is as good as I expected it to be and more. In less than a minute i had my first tree completed.

As for improvements on the program, at this time I cannot think of any, but will likely have a few as I get to know the program. For now though, I am happy with it.

Thanks GAOTD and Pisarra Inc!

Viewed the recommended tutorials, makes it easier and it's fun to watch.

"Error starting module `Win32DPNetGame`" I'm generally having problems with Windows store apps (Runtimebroker).

Win 10
ASUS X555Y

I just played around with it for a few minutes and I think it's fun :-)

"iNVALID KEY." Copied and pasted key into box.

Thanks for this offering. There is a bit of a learning curve but it's fairly easy to use. Looking forward to working with it some more!

Easy to install, downloaded, extracted files to a folder, read the read me, installed, made a few trees, very neat program. Some how to's or a "Lets get started" tutorial would have been nice. Otherwise looks well developed.

Twisted Brush products are generally very, very good for art ppl. I do not do much myself but when I do I feel like a pro using Twisted Brush.

Downloaded and installed(Windows 7 Pro). I like the fact that the serial is included in the readme file. Registered with no issues. I thought it worked well with some test photos. I do use various photo programs and now can doctor up any photo requiring trees and leaves much better than what I'm using now (by cloning flora & foliage). So, it's a keeper for me. Thanks!

Very good programme. I downloaded tb in a previous GAOD, and then went on to purchase it. They are also very good, (quick), dealing with any queries. I would recommend it..

Following my reply to comment #3, I have tried the programme and like it. As someone said, it is fun. Not an essential, not a basic, but a useful enhancement, for instance can be used with letter headings.
My one (serious) complaint: all instructions, options, etc. are in black on a dark grey background, almost impossible to read. The background should be white or very pale.

I recently got TB Tree Studio 1.13 from another giveaway site and think it's a very fun, helpful and powerful tool. I haven't had a lot of time for artwork for several years, but this program can wait on my hard drive until I get back to it. Until then I'm sure I'll fire it up once in a while just to have fun and learn more about it. Very easy to get started, lots of options to wander through. Results look great for a very small investment of time. I'm very impressed with everything I've seen from TwistedBrush. I recommend this one!

I was curious to try this as I'm interested in fractals and heard that realistic trees can be generated by fractal programs; whether this is one I still don't know!
It installed and activated easily on XP sp3; it isn't the newest version, which doesn't appear to support XP. Although the minimum requirements specify 4GB of RAM (8GB preferred), I didn't have any problems with only 2GB (it uses about 110MB of my RAM).
I didn't know how to begin as I couldn't find a help file anywhere, but then a small panel popped up directing me to http://www.screencast.com/t/F97uqeOnZ8 which has an invaluable getting started video.
I later found user guides to related products at http://help.pixarra.com; the link to the Gallery in the Help menu led to a dead page, but a search found it at http://www.pixarra.com/gallery_archive.html.
The way in which the trees, leaf cover, background etc can just be brushed in with a mouse is rather like using a magic wand: I can see that children would love it, and computer artists and garden designers would find it useful. Images can be imported and exported in a wide variety of formats.
The forum and gallery lead to a large number of contributors producing artwork and other additional resources.

Very good software, dedicated to one subject. This is how i like it.
Installed on W7 Ultimate x64bit, without problem.
Thank you to GOTD and Pixara Inc.

Just some examples:

Just had my first go with the program, and it's very intuitive to work with. The layout is brilliant as the layers are already named to match up with the names of the brushes indicating what brush goes where. I 'painted' an acacia tree which looked authentic, and probably the best tree I've done. I can see I'm going to have fun with this one.
Thanks GAOTD and Pixarra.

I have to amend my review. Something seems to wrong with programs ability to save to PSD files. Please comment if there's an answer to this problem.

I find this idea to be outstanding! Yes, it's a niche thing but guess what, it has possibilities for all sorts of artistic endeavors. I can have multiple trees, twisted trees and use multiple leaf sets on the same tree. One can make psychedelic trees. Oops! I shouldn't have given that idea away. I like that it has layers (but i haven't seen a way to name new ones yet) and this program can save to multiple formats including PSD (Photoshop) files. A brilliant idea TwistedBrush!

Handy little program for 3d artists as this allows you to create trees for use in background images

Downloaded the program to the desktop. 'extracted' it from the zip file...ran it...registered the key...got notification it had been registered...brilliant! Just one minor problem...no trace whatsoever of the program itself! OK...I know I have a throbbing migraine...but I've never been careless enough to loose a program on my PC before! Heeeelp!

Upon launching the program it required a feature called "Direct Play" of which I had never heard of before but not an issue as Windows just downloaded it and then it worked. It's actually a very cool little bit of software, it does what it says it does very easily and you end up with something original everytime. Thanks!

Downloaded and installed easily on Win 7, 64-bit. Registration was simple too, just copied the license from the readme file, open the software and pasted it at "File/Enter the license key".

With this software you can create various trees, especially with transparent background. The you can overlay those png files onto videos or images in a video editors/makers.

It's a keeper for me.

Today's giveaway has to be one of the most unusual and useless (to most users) piece of software. I used to visit this site daily, but over the past while the software being offered has been very poor. Not quite sure where this one sits.

Go for it, it is really fun, and could keep children busy on a rainy afternoon, learning all about existing trees - or inventing fantasy ones. Within minutes, they will be able to. Fully mastering palettes and layers might take longer though. I haven't completely understood it all yet.

You could also add realistic trees in the background of a photo to hide something you don't like. Just make sure you choose a tree that grows in the region!

The email I received ..."We've noticed you were interested in TwistedBrush Tree Studio" ... I have not had any interest in drawing trees since I was 6 years old. Please make your SPAM more credible. LMAO
