  1. Please read the site rules here: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/2932- specifically, rule #23. We are happy to help you, but we will not do the work for you. Please post your efforts and we will be happy to guide you.
  2. The paint bucket was doing nothing in that situation because what you were trying to fill was outside of the active selection. Try pressing ESC to deselect before using the paint bucket. Also, you really need to learn how to use layers. That will unlock an incredible amount of power and allow you to do amazing things with Paint.NET. Read about layers here: http://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/WorkingWithLayers.html
  3. If only there was a post half way down the page from this one that explained how to do it... Enjoy.
  4. Far from perfect, but if you want some sort of "automatic" fix: Use a selection tool to select the scratch. Doesn't have to be perfect--you could even use a square selection fairly tight around the scratch. Run the Effects > Noise > Median Blur. Leave the second slider alone, adjust the top slider to taste.
  5. You really need to read the tutorials on my site http://boltbait.com After that, you'll have a better understanding of what IS and IS NOT possible for a plugin. Also, read this:
  6. White is pretty easy. Copy the whole image to a new layer and change the layer blending mode to Multiply. See this page for details: http://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/BlendModes.html
  7. Please read the site rules: We are not here to do your work for you. But, we'd be happy to give you pointers so that you can do it for yourself.
  8. Can you give us a link to the font you were trying to use?
  9. You can also try using one of the text plugins that use GDI+ for text rendering. Like this one... TextSample.zip Source code here: http://boltbait.com/pdn/CodeLab/help/tutorial4.asp Also, there are better text plugins in the plugin forum. Just search around a little.
  10. Are you saving your graphics as .GIF files? If so, that may be the problem. Try .PNG instead. If not, you'll have to show us some examples of the trouble you're having.
  11. Which page is that? I just don't see it. Are you sure you're at http://getpaint.net ? Nope. You'll need someone else's plugin pack for that. I do have Feather though.
  12. Just go to the plugin forum here and download the pinned plugin packs. For example, there is a link to my plugin pack in my signature...
  13. From the color docker window. Access it by pressing F8.
  14. It looks to me that the gradient is being reduced to 256 colors mode for display, and poorly too. If your system has a limitation that a 256 color graphic is required, you might be able to produce a better looking one yourself. For example, starting with your gradient save as a .GIF file. This will reduce the colors to 256 using an algorithm designed to give optimal results. Use the gif file in your application.
  15. Keeping your paypal account empty at all times is good advice. Also, never tie your paypal account to your main bank account. Always associate it with an account that you keep empty. Paypal can clear out your bank account at any time.
  16. Switch to the line drawing tool. Adjust the width of the line. Choose a transparent color in the color chooser window. Switch the drawing mode to "overwrite". Draw a line and it will "erase".
  17. You may be looking for this: http://www.google.com/search?q=viewpad+100&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en
  18. Because the PNG file spec calls for better compression.
