I love Paint.Net (have donated!), but I am having a problem trying to figure out how to do one simple thing.
I have a satellite map image from Bing, with lakes on it. I want to get the exact lake shapes only into a separate image.
I was assuming I could create a transparent layer and then use the bucket fill tool to trace the lake shapes onto the transparent layer, then copy just the layer, and save the lake-shapes layer as a file. But when I bucket fill, I can only do that on the satellite image layer. Would someone be able to tell me how to do this? I feel like a complete idiot! Thanks in advance for any help.

Yep, that does it! I was tearing my hair out, but that does exactly what I need. Many thanks!
