Rick Brewster Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Looks like another monthly release for Paint.NET is on the way! It's a minor update, although it has a new effect that has been requested many times (and that was also promise for v2.5 about a year ago ). Zoom Blur! This release will also fix the bug discussed over here: http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1923 P.S. Anyone got a spare $50k U.S.? Those new 335's are hot ... hey a guy can dream :wink: Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaveN Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Haha....Yeah, Maybe a shape creator can be incorporated in this as well, ie- pentagons, hexagons, and octagons, if not, i will continue to make them the hard way. YAY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illnab1024 Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Thank you for rendering my tutorial (link) obsolete! Also, thank you for killing yet another compression anomaly. (We can call it an anomaly and not go any further, ok? ) Quote ~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 No new color docker? I'm sure you could find a few people around here willing to test it for you.

Rick Brewster Posted August 27, 2006 Author Share Posted August 27, 2006 No new color docker? I'm sure you could find a few people around here willing to test it for you. It would be irresponsible to release something like that to hundreds of thousands of users with so little testing.

It's only a monthly update to 2.xx ... just enough to keep you hooked Meanwhile the most work gets poured in to v3.0.

(We can call it an anomaly and not go any further, ok? ) Actually it's not even a compression anomaly ... we load the image, then copy it over to our own internal format using GDI+. But GDI+ was doing it incorrectly. So we use our own code now. Maybe I should just use libpng or something, jeez. With Paint.NET I honestly believe that we have run smack into every single bug in GDI+. You would not believe the things I have had to work around.

BTW, when you find issues with GDI+, do you feed those back to the Windows development team?

Bob Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 So we use our own code now. Wow! it's a big rewriting, isn't it? And i'm surprised nobody ask it, but why v 2.72 and not v 2.71? Quote No. Way. I've just seen Bob. And... *poof!*—just like that—he disappears into the mist again. ~Helio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted August 27, 2006 Author Share Posted August 27, 2006 Wow! it's a big rewriting, isn't it? Not in this case. It's basically just copying bytes from one location to another using a simple double-nested loop. And i'm surprised nobody ask it, but why v 2.72 and not v 2.71? 0.01 increases traditionally mean "bug fixes only." This has a new effect, so ... it gets a 0.02 increase. *shrug* Quote The Paint.NET Blog: https://blog.getpaint.net/ Donations are always appreciated! https://www.getpaint.net/donate.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EXreaction Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Cool, but when are we going to get a blur tool, the one more like a paint brush? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted August 28, 2006 Author Share Posted August 28, 2006 I don't ever remember promising such a tool.

EXreaction Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I don't ever remember promising such a tool. You might not have promised it ever, but I really would love to have a blur tool. I do need one quite often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaveN Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 Befriend someone that is a teacher. Go to http://www.journeyed.com They have really inexpensive photoshop. Now DOOM ON YOU. My blur tool is my lasso and my gaussian blur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXreaction Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 I tried the lasso tool and gaussian blur, but if you blur too much at once you see the area that was blurred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaveN Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Rick we were talking about adding in a tool, and I was explaining how you can do that easily right now. Blur by one pixel, or select just the edges and blur that, then you shouldn't see too many lines.... Sorry Rick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilmikemarin Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 You should add a color filter tool. And an automatic border tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Man Dan Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 I believe Rick said it'd be this weekend. Yeah.
