For the people who do not know about this awesome tool already, as I did not untill a few days ago, I am very impressed with this tool and came up with some cool knobs already without all the hassle.
Don't forget to donate the man some cash if you like it!

The ability for an object to throw shadows on layers below it is just brilliant! Thanks for the link.

This is going to save an awful lot of faffing around in Photoshop.
Good find, AngularMomentum.

Exactly...especially the rotation and stitching is a pain in the neck in Photoshop...even if one would use that knob stitch program in Photoshop from Otium...this little program does that in no time...perfect, just perfect!

Hmm. I do all my knobs in Photohop.
The rotation and save as a frame is a pain but the stitching is very fast and easy with CS3.
And in PS i have full control over all the layers and shadows...
but.
I have to test this one =)
Update: NICE!. This actually works. I cant make as advanced stuff as in photoshop but its superb for simpler knobs. And There is an option to import your own images but i havn't tried that yet.

There is odd aliasing with the PNG's when you rotate. I have tried all manner of manipulations but it doesn't help. I tried to write the developer by no luck there. I am sure this will improve as the program developes.
Its really a good program, will be even better in the future I think.

Is the odd aliasing in Knobman or in SM? You could try turning off smoothing in SM...

Here are some examples, I don't know if I used the correct term or not. I create the image @ 200x200 pixels load the layers into knobman. Rotate the one that needs it at -135x135 export it. Then Resize in PS CS3. Until I get on my normal computer for this sort of work I don't have many knobs controls to share. These are just a few and they are very plain jane, I like it simple. I will load up some more tonight I have a bunch or stuff that I can add for everyone to use freely if they like them.
So heres the link and a jpeg of the what I am looking at...of course you'll have to load and turn them to see it.

I was finally able to open the rar file and I scanned the knobs there. They are very nice. I normally drop in my png from PS but see these done with program itself it really amazing. Good work.
