Here is what I consider my "Essential", award winning , plugin pack. It includes 23 plugins and 1 palette file . When you see , you can click it for more information (including source code in some cases). To install, download this file to your C:/Program Files/Paint.NET/Effects folder and unzip it.   Note: This is an older version of my plugin pack for paint.net v3.5.11. For the most recent version, go here: https://forums.getpaint.net/BoltBaitPluginPack
