This plugin has some built-in stone textures: https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/115953-creative-text-pro-v11-by-boltbait-and-welshblue-updated-february-16-2020/

That’s the one I use. My hosting company’s control panel has it built-in. I just had to press a button and it was applied to my site. Then I added an “http” to “https” redirect to my site configuration file.

Try: Layer > Rotate / Zoom

Ha ha! Thanks.

All of the USB drives are amazing... I couldn't vote for just one, so I didn't vote. Consider this a vote for each and every one of them.

OK, this is terrible, and I don't expect any votes, but I had an interesting idea... I'm sure one of you could execute this idea better, but here it is... What was my idea? Well... The signature changes based on the theme chosen by the user. If you view the message board using the Default theme, the signature looks different if you switch to the "Goodnight nurse" theme. (For those that don't know, you can change your theme using the drop-down list at the bottom of every page.)

Rick has a possible fix for this. Please install this version and let us know if it fixes your issue: https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/116885-extremely-low-bit-depth-in-paintnet-4213/?do=findComment&comment=574208

Would this do? Adjustments > Combined Adjustments (Sepia and Brightness/Contrast) followed by Effects > Blur > Surface Blur (very small radius)

Paint.NET uses the fonts that you have installed on your system. So, to use them inside of Paint.NET, you must first install them into Windows. To install a font in Windows, just right-click on the font file and choose "Install" from the menu that comes up. NOTE: Not all fonts are compatible with Paint.NET.

Make sure you're actually using 2 layers instead of only 1.

Maybe you’re just not looking in the sub-menus... Show us what is in the Effects > Object menu

Are you planning on sharing this plugin? If not, it may be easier to use CodeLab to calculate your info in PreRender() and report it to you in the Debug window.

Why do you think that it didn’t update? It looks updated to me.

Looks like everything’s in there to me. what are you missing?

When you ran my installer, did you click the “install everything“ button?

Show me a screenshot of your Effects directory.

When you say it didn’t work, how do you know? In other words, exactly what happened?

I'm glad you got it working! Us plugin authors can only add stuff to the Adjustments menu or the Effects menu.

Not really. If you want to use a different text plugin to make the text, then apply the gradient later, that's easy too. Here's what you want to do: 1. Make your text black on a transparent background--use your favorite text plugin if you want. 2. Select All, Copy. 3. Draw a gradient over your text. 4. Edit > Object > Paste Alpha

If you have my plugin pack installed, you can use Effects > Text Formations > Outlined / Gradient text. My pack: https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/113220-b

Sorry, but you wouldn't believe the number of people who come in here demanding the functionality they see on their favorite CSI show and we have to reset their expectations to something a little more realistic.

I played around with this new build and it looks rock solid. PNG is lossless again! 😎

The store version includes more "stuff" to make it work with the store... auto updater, etc.
