I like the subdued colors on his right hand better, but I miss the vibrance of the other colors. Still very nice! I had been thinking of doing a Jack Skellington but now I have a different idea. I'll just have to see if I can pull it off...

I like the second one, with color. It's electric! It's vibrant! It's radiant!

Looks very spooky/Halloweenish. Ghostly even.

That reminds me of a phoenix, kinda.

PNG format supports partial transparency. Unfortunately older versions of Internet Explorer do not display PNG transparency correctly. If that's not a big issue, then I would definitely go with PNG.

Will you share it with us when you are finished?

Madjik, that last one is nice. It would make a good entry in the Unofficial Logo Contest.

I concur! Wow!

Where do you get this from? Well companies like Microsoft do that type of thing (Vista RC1 and stuff). True, but the source code to Vista is not readily available.Plus from what I understand this is Rick's project, not Microsoft's. Anyway, that's neither here nor there. Paint.NET is an awesome tool.

Nope, I still get a broken link.

It's not coming through for me at all. I don't see an avatar for jerkfight. I see a placeholder as it tries to load and then it blanks out.

Where do you get this from?Anyway, I don't remember for sure how I found Paint.NET. I think I was looking at GimpShop, and I've always been a little intimidated and/or frustrated by The Gimp and other open-source paint tools. I think I heard a rumor that there was a replacement for MS-Paint that was developed as part of this guy's college project. And that's how I found it. (Yes, I know that it is not going to be an official replacement for MS-Paint and that it was developed as part of Rick's college career.)

Oooh. That's sweet, Hellfire010! Maybe a little better antialiasing of the text, but otherwise it's pretty sweet! I could even see using that as a sig on other boards...

Hi, David. If you read the help file, it should tell you how to make filled shapes. The help file can answer basic questions probably better than the forum can. But to do my best to answer your question, yes, you can set the thickness of a shape's border by setting the brush width and you can select whether your shape is filled, outlined, or one solid color. The colors of the shape fill and border are determined by the primary and secondary colors you have selected.

I hate to say "works for me", but... it does. Sorry.I'll let you know if either of my home machines are different.
