Yeah exactly, there are a few other similar methods but none really get the same effect, it was more like a tab with more than just that single effect, there was some scratch things or something, it was more like a texture tab or something like that

No, the only plugin I had installed was the Drop-Shadow effect, which doesn't have anything to really do with that scratchy crinkle effect on the F

Thank you very much - but I just don't understand, I managed to do this without any plugins or using noise?

Not sure if I should be asking about this here, but late a few nights ago I was messing around on paint.net and came across this tab of effect presets, with small images above them as a preview (from what I can remember). I added it to my image & it instantly improved everything 100%, but afterwards I completely forgot how I found it. It added a sort of crinkly/foil effect (can't really describe it) to the image, as seen below: I've been kicking myself going through every effect tab, adjustment, colours etc. to find this, & I've had no luck. Was wondering if a long-time user or someone with experience would know where to find it? If it helps at all, I had previously made the text in photoshop & added a gold effect, then added it to photoshop to add a glowing effect around it. But I'm confident that the wrinkled effect seen in the picture was in paint.net.
