Couldn't you just edit your topic title?

[Goonfella]

Thanks very much for the excellent plug ins Ed , but I have to agree with Frontcannon. Why not stick to one thread and edit it as necessary?

OK, look through my plugin thread and tell me if you can easily tell which bug reports and feature requests are still relevant.


Pinned, BTW.

[Frontcannon]

pyrochild, there are somehow duplicates of this thread pinned, one titled "... v. 3.5" and another ".. v. 3.35". That's why I said he could just edit it.

[pyrochild]

Yeah... I blame Ed.

[csm725]

Because IE sucks. And you say that like installing Firefox, Safari, Chrome or Opera would be such a BIG deal.

[pyrochild]

Also, 7-zip is capable of extracting from the broken ZIP file IE8 gives you.

[pyrochild]

With 7-Zip, you have to extract it twice. The first time will give you a file with the same name, but without the ZIP extension. Extract again to get the DLL. I have no idea how IE manages to frak this up.

Right-click -> 7-Zip -> Extract Here
Repeat on newly created extensionless file.

[Sozo]

All right, newer Edffects! The cross processing is especially nice.

Can we use the old 3.36 common .dll? I didn't see one in the zip file. Or do you even need one?

no longer needed...

(but if you have some of my old 'stand-alone' effects, they may still need the old version)

Ok, thanks, good to know. ^_^

Excellent work, thank you very much, but if it by any chance I can add the old Dents plugin to the new version? The angled Stretch option in it is really great..

Ditto!

As a general rule, I don't include things in the main package once we have built them into paint.net.
However, it will probably make an appearance in the 'Archives' sometime in the near future

[barbieq25]

Cool! Thank you so much!

[Ed Harvey]

Dents 'Classic' now in the Archives

[yellowman]

You Are awesome, thank you so much.

Ordered, Atkinson and Floyd Steiberg Dithers have now resurfaced in the archives...
