Thank you, Sarkut. I just sent you a PM. I soooo appreciate your help. Jillian

I can email the photo if someone wants to help me. If anyone has step-by-step instructions, that would be wonderful. Thank you! Jillian

Hi, Thank you for the video. I'm afraid that it moves too fast for me and although I keep stopping the video and then go back to my photo to enhance it, my results are not the same as your own. So I am having trouble. Would you happen to have step-by-step written instructions on just slimming the face? Thank you again. I really appreciate your help. Jan

Thank you, ptuz... I wish I could use this tool but I think that the face I want to slim down would look peculiar. I think I need to free hand something but I'm not sure what. I also have a picture of a face that is too shine. So I am looking to slim down the face and take some shiny-ness out. Thank you! Jan

I would like to slim a face in a photo; remove the double chin and slim down the cheeks and neck. Would you please provide directions how to do this? I'd like to make the changes look as natural as possible. Thank you! Jan

I want to thank both of you for helping me out with the instructions for getting this banner ad completed. Here's the final result. I still had some trouble with the font and resizing the little hat and wand but I'm pleased with my first attempt. Again, I appreciate your help. Jillian

Thank you, this is great help and I was able to get the image sized and placed on the background. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your assistance. Now I am typing the text but no words are appearing. I have read through the help and all my settings seem to be correct..font, size, color, etc. But no words are visible. Last question...on the hat, which I have resized per your instructions, there is a tail of pixie dust which comes out. It's a magic hat and a wand photo. I need to make the pixie dust more prominent. It is not visible when I reduced the size of the photo to place on the back ground. Is there a way to do this? I think I need to pull out part of the photo...the part with pixie dust and make it white color or gold so it stands out but I don't know how to do this. Thank you. Jillian

I'm overwhelmed by the tutorials and still can't answer my questions. This is what I am trying to do with Paint.net: I have to make a banner 550x75. I have a png background image with colors I want to use. I have no problem inserting this into paint.net and resizing it. I got that much. I have another image of a hat and magic wand that is large and is a jpg. I want to insert this image onto the background. I need to crop out the hat and wand and make the background disappear. Then I need to resize the hat and wand and then lay it over the top of the background that I have resized. I am able to take out the background from the hat and wand image but when I resize it, it looks terribly distorted. So that is my first problem. Then I want to take that image and place it on top of the background I have already resized but I can't seem to do this either. Finally, I want to use the text feature to write on the banner. Can anyone please help? Thank you so much. Jillian
