I've been doing abstract art with Paint.net for around five years, and in that time I've found many different styles that I would cling to for a while. About four years ago I started using Ownage's Toon filter plugin posted in 2006 (https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/1671-toon-filter/), and I liked it mainly because of a method I found on the forums to create a nice cracked-surface effect. I'm not sure when exactly, but at some point a few years ago, the Toon filter disappeared from my effects list. I initially hadn't tried much except for making sure the .dll was still in my effects folder, which it was. I recently tried again by just re-downloading the plugin, but still no luck. It wasn't until tonight that I really sat down and tried to figure it out. I opened the .dll using 7Zip, and compared the files with those of effects I knew still worked, and still wasn't able to make it available. I'll now concede that I lack the knowledge required to fix it. So I scoured the forums trying to see if anyone else has had a similar issue, and when that didn't pan out, checked to see if Ownage might be available to ask about it. Seeing that they haven't visited since 2006, I decided to set up an account here (take a look through the forum rules so I don't mess this post up) and ask all you fine folk if you've experienced something like this, and if so, your possible solutions. I've included the first piece I made using the effect (resized to fit forum requirements).
