You posted this in the wrong section, but I can turn this into a tutorial thread if you would like, give me a sample of the photo you want to take it out of, basically, color match, pick the color around the "noised" pixel, and fill it in with that.

For cartoons like family guy and the simpsons, no. You have to study the design of the cartoon, and see how defined the lines are, in the simpsons and family guy, and american dad for that matter, the lines are quite defined. I usually blur stuff a lot, just make it large and then resize, should come out fine.

Search before posting please.

I use it because I have to in school, plus I want to learn other adobe programs as well. I still do use Paint.NET though, so yeah, im not a traitor.

The top glare seems a little bit too much to me. I play pool!

Or have your image, go to canvas size, select the center button, and add 6 to both things, voila.

I was thinking you were talking about that too, and I was going to mention that the rotate-roll thing is capable of doing it.

you can always just open that selection in a new image and skew it like that.

It is a plugin in the plugins section, it tiles the image for you and fills with that pattern, or image.

Using the flattened will work. You are just changing the blending mode over the thing, If it looks wierd with the white, which I suspect it will, play around with it, try making one pixel black, and one transparent, and try different colors.

I think it is very close. To get that lined effect, try doing this, kind of hard, and you can do it a lot easier, but you won't get the same effect. Make a new document i pixel high and 2 wide, color one pixel black and keep one white, then on your recreation, make a new layer, photo flood fill it with that small 1x2 document and then adjust your blending mode to get those line like effects.

I reccomend utilizing layers for this task, but what I do personally is take my corners, say I make a triangle, and it is just the transparent part. I take a little bit beyond that with my lasso, and then complete it, then gaussian blur around 5 pixels, less if the size is less, then I put my primary focus on a new layer, this is really simple with a single color, with a fade, it is a different story, say you have a fade and you want to do that, make your fade/gradient, and then blur 100 pixels to get your desired result of gradient/fading. Then erase your edges you want to show, and blur once more 5 or so pixels, then you got it.. I basically did that to make the background of that image. Yes, barkbark, that was made in Paint.Net.

I did a different one in paint.net and touched it up in photoshop to make it look more real. And I didn't say anything about touching that one I posted in pictorum, I didn't even know how to use photoshop then, I just got it like the begnining of this month. Sorry to bring this back, I don't like being accused of something like that. And most of the implications you have made so far are all wrong, at least the ones about me. And for the record, I have only posted ONE thing on these forums that I have done in photoshop, the rest is purely Paint.NET, so please keep those mean and negative posts to yourself. Also, if you are really up for a challenge, try recreating something from a battery visualization, or something from itunes visualizations. I personally feel that recreating those brings out all my skills in paint.net. Sorry for bringing the negativeness back once again. Just my input, seeing I was being attacked.

Yeah, I remember using that command a lot.

This thing has like a 20 gig, at most, I don't even know anymore, it is real old.

Then what does Ctrl Shift X do? I cannot remember. Will the MDI allow you to drag in images in your "bay" into another and place it on another layer?

I can't. I hope I didn't delete it while I was reformatting, I miss some stuff when I backup on CD's sometimes.

it isn't really necessary, but when I was first juggling between Photoshop and Paint.NET, I would get mixed up as to which program I was in, for instance I am used to Ctrl+Shift+X to make it black and white, and that is the liquify tool in photoshop, so I would get confused. And I don't really like the selection tools how they are just all S - S for elipse and rectangle - L for lasso - W for wand. And a shortcut for changing brush sizes if possible. Just little things, not very important, just aesthetic to me, maybe some others here too.

Nice, I did a really complex one, actually touched it up in photoshop, looked almost the same as the original, but I can't seem to find it on any of my computers. One thing about the bliss is the line from the night sky and the grass, kind of messy, not real important, just something I noticed. an easy way to outline it is to take the line tool, then curve it to match the curves of the line, then paint above it and select then fill in background, maybe blur 1 or 2 pixels on that edge too.

I don't get that problem with the tool, I basically do most of my stuff with keyboard, only use mouse when I am drawing, coloring, and making selections really, that and getting to effects(sometimes). How about being able to change the shortcuts?

It is sort of hard, pick a visualization from a music program, windows media makes ones that can be easily used for this. I've done this, yes it is possible. You take the visualization, and try to recreate it best you can with paint.Net.

haha.

Well t2suggas suggested that. I don't do it, I use the unlimited history to my advantange while making my image, AND I would suggest making new layers for adding parts that you don't think will fit, you can always make it invisible, or delete it.

If you work a lot, your notepad in their instance would get "big" the .txt documents do not get big generally.

I mean the unlimited history is a great feature from Paint.NET. Photoshop only saves 20.
