Well it's been quite a while since I posted here and I still can't afford Photoshop but I love my Paint.NET!! Here is a little photo touch up that I recently finished. Let me know what you think.
Before
After
I like what you did with the pokemon sig. The border, the drop shadow, and the stamp in the upper right corner all give this sig a lot more depth and dimension than your others sigs. Keep having fun.
Ah yes. Plugins. I remember when paint.net had very few. These are powerful little tools that extend the abilities of the program. Be patient and keep reading. It looks like you've got some good resources to investigate so I will spare you any more links. Most important - have fun.
I had to have the motherbooard replaced on the old laptop and the plugins were not backed up so I have to go out and collect my favorites all over again :evil:
Wow guys! They all look much better than anything I could produce.
Expiration gets my vote for his clean and consistent composition. Icons worthy of a high end desktop.
