When you draw a gradient, the transition starts at your drawing point, and ends at your ending point. The areas outside of your drawing maintain the beginning and ending color. So just start in the middle draw as much as you want for a transition then stop.

Whenever you download and install Paint.NET, it's a good time to go to the forum and download fresh copies of the plugins. Many plugins get updated and you'd never know unless you frequent the forums.

You can drag the dockable windows outside of Paint.NET's main window.
Or, you can get used to the "4 finger salute" as we call it, by pressing F5, F6, F7, and F8 all at the same time.

An "Object" is a set of pixels surrounded by transparent pixels. Your image has no "objects" as you have no transparency.

I made a new version.
@Robot Graffiti, please read the following post:
My tutorial for adding tabs to an effect had a bug in it.
It just requires one line of code change on your part.

Important: If you've followed this tutorial and added a tab set to your plugin, I left out one important step! Please edit your project according to the EDIT section above.

Try this:
1. Duplicate your layer
2. On the bottom layer, run your layers adjustment
3. On the top layer, use the eraser tool to "paint" your layers adjustment

Just because a bunch of software does it, doesn't make it right.

When Rick says your OS is 5 years old, he means you're missing 5 years of security patches. It's dangerous to even surf the web with such an OS.

Investigate… what?
If you think an image was saved incorrectly, post it here and someone will investigate.

Even if I have the object selected and I use the Feather Object, it does not work.
OK, here's where the confusion lies:
An "object" is defined (in Paint.NET) as a set of pixels surrounded by completely transparent pixels.
You're running an object plugin on a layer that has no objects.

It did not work as I wanted it to. Even after using that tool, it still didn't smooth the make the pixels near the selection edge partially transparent.
You're probably not using the plugins properly.
Let's say you have a line, (similar to the one above) like so:
I have zoomed in so you can see the individual pixels.
Without selecting anything (Ctrl+D) use the Effects > Object > Feather Object plugin:

he interface text would disappear
I wonder if there is a very slow handle leak in PdN.
Or, your video drivers need to be updated.

I just don't have the patience to mess with it.
Then we can’t fix it.
Everyone’s computer setup is different. If we can figure out what’s different about yours, we could probably fix Paint.NET for you. But, we aren’t mind readers. We need a little help from you to figure it out.
If you go back to an old version, we can no longer provide support. You’ll be on your own and you will soon notice that your favorite plugins will stop working.

Only drawback for me is the limit on font size
I could make the text size bigger, but eventually, the 3D look just won't look good enough at the higher sizes.

Please post the crash log so we will know where the problem is.

Ha ha ha ha ha...
Not gonna happen:
On 11/5/2005 at 1:50 PM, Rick Brewster said:(1) Will it ever be ported to Mac OS, GNU/Linux, or any other operating system?
(2) What about Mono support? Wouldn't that be really easy?
We will not be doing any work to directly support Mac OS, Linux, Mono, or any other platform. We are doing this in order to focus on the best quality and support for the platform that we develop on: Windows with .NET. Also, we simply do not have the resources or expertise to do any of this work.

The pictures you posted above are already smaller than that.

What is the final size of the image you're targetting?

Show us
[Expand canvas], [Keep canvas size] ----- The more obvious Option is--- (What i do 99% of the time) Shrink it 50% or 25% or 20% -- small enough to fit.

I really like this idea. Here's my take on it:
