Maximum size for sigs on this message board is 500x150. Your's is too big.

I have a submenu under effects called "color". Perhaps you could put it there? I think Ed Harvey made that submenu. It's not localized, but it might be a good place for an effect like this.

I wouldn't suggest it for every image. It is obviously not right for your sample image. Try a natural photograph instead.

I read the first line of your sig very carefully and noticed that it has two periods at the end. What prize do I win?

janettsue, we demand (nicely) a step-by-step tutorial.

That is amazing. How EXACTLY did you do that?

Indeed, delete the files in the demo folders (and in those only!) for the effects you don't need from the project, or edit the .csproj file directly.To change a submenu, modify the third parameter in the constructor call. For example, change public SmartBlurEffect() : base("Smart Blur", Resources.SmartBlurImage, "Smart Effects", EffectFlags.Configurable) to public SmartBlurEffect() : base("Smart Blur", Resources.SmartBlurImage, "Blurs", EffectFlags.Configurable) Kris. OK, that's not the right way to make this change. Please do it this way instead: public SmartBlurEffect() : base("Smart Blur", Resources.SmartBlurImage, SubmenuNames.Blurs, EffectFlags.Configurable) By using SubmenuNames.Blurs your effect will show up under the localized "Blurs" submenu if you are running Paint.NET in a language other than English.

That is because you aren't using it right. Follow these directions: http://boltbait.googlepages.com/feather If you have already flattened your image, this is never gonna work. Time to start over!

First, if you plan on using that sig on this forum, you'll need to scale it down a bit. Our maximum size for sigs is 500x150. Second, if you have the layered source file it is easy. Just download my plugin pack (or just the Feather plugin, really) and Feather the layer with the guy on it by using the True Feather method.

OK, guys. Be nice. Kris is sharing his hard work free of charge here.

Why not just duplicate your layer and complete your lines on your duplicate? Then, you could use the magic wand on that layer and switch layers before using paint bucket. That "selection" layer could then be deleted when you are finished using it.

You could also try the Gradient plugin (in Alpha only mode). viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2294&p=14468 8)

As you wish...

The upper right corner of your screen shows the thumbnail of your current image. The individual levels are shown in the floating window in the lower right corner of your screen. As you open more pictures at the same time, you will see additional thumbnails in the upper right corner of your screen. Click on them to switch to the various pictures you have open.

Make sure you don't have anything selected when you type text. Usually this problem is related to the fact that someone has a selection active and they are trying to type text outside of that selection. You can make sure nothing is selected by pressing ESC. Or, you can simply select the entire canvas by pressing Ctrl-A. That works as well.

Wait for the next release of Paint.NET OR, if you need it today... Save in GIF format.

Do you mean 32 bit BMP format? Well, you can't. Paint.NET does not support creating BMP files higher than 24 bit. If you want full 32 bit (which is 24 bits of color and 8 bits of alpha) you need to use PNG format.

Save in PNG format.

Here are some examples of what the plugins can do: Here is the original picture: Now, after processing with my new Pastel plugin (using all defaults): And, after processing with my new Dream plugin: Here is processing with Gaussian Blur+ (radius=10, green channel, xor blending mode): Here is an example of using Render > Polygon to make a foil sticker: Render > Flames Selection > Bevel I'll edit more in here later... 8)

Here is the original picture: Now, after processing with my new Pastel plugin (using all defaults): And, after processing with my new Gaussian Blur+ plugin (Radius=10, all channels, darken blending mode): Here is processing with Gaussian Blur+ (radius=10, green channel, xor blending mode): Go get your own copy of BoltBait's Plugin Pack. 8)

Do yourself a favor and create a transparency mask, save it. Then, use Illnab1024's Alpha Mask Import Plugin to restore your alpha levels at will! Read this page for more info: http://boltbait.googlepages.com/alphamask

Short answers: (1) Image > Resize, choose the desired size and click the OK button. (2) Can't be done. Instead, save your pictures to your computer and upload them manually.

Here is a smilie I just created: I'm thinking of adding it to the list. What do you think?

They all do. If you know where to look.
