Goonfella Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Definitely AA Assistant for me. Don`t know what I`d do without it. ( well yes I do know - I`d use feather but you get my drift) Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdnnoob Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) What I would suggest is you install the plugin packs by these people to get started: pyrochild, boltbait, madjik, Ed Harvey, Simon B, and dpy That should get you...a lot of good plugins. If you REALLY need a list of the plugins I use most out of those...nevermind just download all of them Edited November 23, 2011 by pdnnoob No, Paint.NET is not spyware...but, installing it is an IQ test. ~BoltBait Blend modes are like the filling in your sandwich.

ventor1 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 For me it's the plugin that does what it is supposed to do when I need it to do something. The point I am making is to download plugins as required and not simply because you can. Otherwise much like I did when I started using PDN, you end up with hundreds of plugins with no way of remembering which plugin does what! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point I am making is to download plugins as required and not simply because you can. Otherwise much like I did when I started using PDN, you end up with hundreds of plugins with no way of remembering which plugin does what! But...but...I have nearly 300 plugins and I know what all of them do! Seriously, though, this is some sound advise. Make sure you read descriptions on all the plugins before you download them, then use them a few times to make sure you remember.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 That's EER's Plugin Index BoltBait is responsible for the indispensible Codelab plugin (amongst many others). ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitenurse79 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Pyrochild, Boltbait, Simon B, Red Ochre, Ed Harvey. I know i'm only echoing other posts here, but those packs are the perfect launch pad to start with. Also the Shape 3D plugin is amazing too. I have to say, Paint.NET beats PS hands down for ease of use / appearance and, most importantly, a friendly and easy to navigate forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitenurse79 Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I only use about 15 regularly ... sods law I delete one then need it. I always forget the name of the plugin I can picture it, but always forget if it is a render or a distort or....etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
