Private photo 4 Layers Combination of Oil Painting effect and Brush Strokes effect. Texture of canvas added on lowest layer. A little fine tuning after that.
Well, at the moment i CAN get on this forum. But i have now and then over the last 24 hours been met with a page telling me that the account was suspended.
The easy way is to save the image, and use another program to put up the wallpaper.
If you don't want to save the image:
That other app http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?showtopic=13005 can put ONE layer in to IrfanView. http://www.irfanview.com/ IrfanView can put up the wallpaper.
And IrfanView can open pictures in Paint.NET if you want to. ;-)
I actually did this a while back. And i found the best way is to make a new layer and redo the drawing manually. Remember to use the Bézier curve. http://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/en/LineCurve.html
For some reason it didn't.
I started update from Paint.NET, and it started upating NET 4.0
NET 4.0 just closed, and nothing more happened.
I opened Paint.NET and asked it to look for updates, and it found V3.5.5
OS is Windows 7
I don't think that is possible as a plug-in. But let me add my vote to this feature request.
I know that there was a workaround using BoltBait's feather tool. But i am not sure if this will work in the new version.
