"Long Shadow" Plugins?
SodiumEnglish replied to OwOWatsThis's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
This is definitely possible using pyrochild's Trail plugin and a little bit of work. 1. Make sure your text is on a second layer (Layer 3 in photo) surrounded by transparency. 2. Duplicate that layer of text (Layer 2 in photo). 3. Use the Trail plugin with fade-out disabled, max distance (500 unfortunately but should be enough), and spacing of 1. 4. Use magic wand to select your trailed text and fill using the color of choice... done! Result: -
New icons look great!

Dynamic Draw roadmap and beta tests
SodiumEnglish replied to NinthDesertDude's topic in Plugin Developer's Central
There also appears to be the DataContractJsonSerializer also built into the .NET Framework. -
Performance Update Hey everyone, I've done some updates to make the loading and performance of the search app faster again! All the changes in more detail can be found here on the pull request. In short, the generated site is now smaller and load times are significantly faster (~.5s to 1s) --- now using the compress layout. Main javascript file is now in a module-pattern and the main css is now in scss format for easier maintenance.

Wacky problem with layers
SodiumEnglish replied to Meenie50's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
You may be confused as to the active layer and what the checkbox means. The checkboxes will turn rendered layers on and off and does not affect whether you can draw in them or not. The currently selected layer (highlighted in blue) is the layer that you are currently interacting with, draw on, etc. regardless of whether the check is selected or not. -

Alternative Paint.NET logos
SodiumEnglish replied to HCGS's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Well, if we were to go back in time... here's some logo history via wayback-machine: (circa 2006) (also circa 2006) (circa 2013 to present) In my opinion, it has been modernized to an extent. The current logo looks nice and shouldn't need to change aside from a potentially higher resolution. -
Paint.NET needs to be modernized
SodiumEnglish replied to HCGS's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Hey Scott, it looks like all of the links and one image (by AndrewDavid) in that thread are broken / no longer exist. -
It looks like your image is not corrupted but the problem was that you overwrote the pdn file as a png -- preserving the pdn file extension. You will have to change the file extension from pdn to png and you may open the image again! However, since you overwrote it with the png version, if you had layers in your pdn file you will have lost those. You can rename the file with command prompt by cd'ing to the path the file is located and then renaming it. C:\Users\MyUsername>cd Desktop\ C:\Users\MyUsername\Desktop>rename MyImage.pdn MyImage.png

Update! First time I'm posting an update here haha. I bring a performance enhancement to the Plugin Index by pre-loading the data into the page with Jekyll so that there is no need to fetch the data after page load. You should see the plugins on the page now without any delay!

Print error message, but no details!
SodiumEnglish replied to ScootCoot's topic in Troubleshooting & Bug Reports
Are you able to print something from another program: Microsoft Word; Notepad; Web browser? If you can't than it is either your machine or the printer but if you can than it may be something wrong with your Paint.NET installation. -
I am getting the same error but when pasting the index JSON into JSONLint all seems to be good. I found a similar problem parsing JSON and C# with the same "Invalid JSON primitive: ." due to an errant comma but no errant comma is present; JSONLint would show this as an error when validating. I am not sure what is wrong.

Selection tool sometimes won't work

This is in the Context Menu but it would be under "Open with" and Paint.NET comes up for me to edit a photo. -
How to bring out faint impressions
SodiumEnglish replied to sf11dude's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Hey, I'm a coin guy too! At least the bottom half of the blunder S seems to be noticeable from the image. You can sort of bring it out some more, or at least make it easier to make out, using the Majority Color Effect plugin, results below. I used a Radius of Analyze of 4 and default tolerance. -

DOWNLOAD buttons for attached files
SodiumEnglish replied to Ego Eram Reputo's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Blue Gray Orange? Edit: It looks to be in working order now! I can also edit the color with inspect element but it only accepts the default provided gray and blue. Custom colors turn white. -
I'm not sure how much this will help but what version iPhone and Safari were you using? What doesn't work when you try: page doesn't load at all, page loads but plugins don't show, page loads but everything looks wrong, everything loads but search controls don't work, etc.? Screenshot if possible or relevant?

@Ego Eram Reputo Hey Ego, while I have used Paint.NET for a long time I am new to using the forums. Your index is a really useful tool and thanks for keeping it updated! I wanted to share with you a tool I made, using your index data, allowing people to filter and search the plugins in your index. I of course credited you and linked back here for people interested. I have it publicly available on GitHub here and using GitHub Pages "PDN Plugin Index" so that it is available all the time and can be updated with each revision. Do you think this is a good idea? Is it okay to use your index data in this way? If you think it is okay, would you consider sharing it/linking it in the first post?
