I tested it and compared on my 2 GTX 465's, I far exceeded the 3000% for the Gaussian Blur, and the Radial Blur was in the 100000% range, check that progress bar for the non GPU version: http://www.screentoaster.com/watch/stUE5WREZIRFtXQ1pdWF5YUVNV/paint_net_gpu_blurs_x2_gtx465

Nice! Great for object photography.

Finally, school is over and I can experiment with PDN(and get an av and sig). Anyways, splintered Hex...

I have nothing to be proud of, but this thing only runs at 1.4 ghz. It's about four years old so it makes sense. I've thought about overclocking but because the CPU is old I don't want to risk an overheat. EDIT:Have fun laughing... .

I found out from my uncle. He forgot the name for a while. I'm just glad he remembered. I was getting tired of MS Paint.

For the icons you can use this Plugin. Make sure you put it in the File Types folder in the Paint.Net directory... http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1152

You can use the gradient plugin in the plugins section. It has HSV Long type and you can get a good looking rainbow off of that. EDIT: Here is the link: http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=2294

You could call it "Polygon and Theta Curves Plugin(Codelab)".

The dropshadow has a plugin here... http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1411

Yes it does. I have W XP Sp2 and it crawls when I get a complex selection. (Though my computer is not that fast...)

Good job barkbark00. That is really cool looking and realistic.

Blur is the Gaussian blur tool, unless you mean a brush that blurs, and there is a tutorial for contracting a selection here... http://paintdotnet.12.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?t=1557 Burn and Dodge are Layers options, just double click on the layer. It is under blending modes.

The outline tool wrks somewhat for larger text and the drapshadow does shadow, but they're not perfect... You probably get better results doing it yourself.

I've had the same problem with other types of files. A reboot usually does the trick. Do Ctrl-Alt-Del and go to proccesses. If there is one called PaintDotNet.exe and you closed PDN, It means it is still in the processor and ram. A reboot fixes the problem or you can click end process but that could be risky(end the wrong process and your computer would stop running(not permanently)).

Thats a really good one.

Mine wasn't worth posting, but I felt like letting people critisize.

Yeah. Thats pretty good. Make the top white alittle.(liek the pic)

My best shot.... Not very good, but then I didn't think of using clouds Plugin. Good idea.

Thats a hard one. I got an image that looked a little. I'm basically making noise at high saturation and then doing oilpainting at 5 brush size. I make two layers with different noise that way and then tint one medium dark orange and the other black and white. I ran a glow. I'll check some more and give a better description.

I'll try too.

Here is a recreation of the Vista logo for PDN.

Here's my hack at it. I looked at a vista logo for reference, but the whole image was self made by hand. Thanks for the idea CMD(orb tut). The hardest part was getting the colors right.

I tried recreating the effect, but it didn't work. I'll see....

Thats the fun part about PDN, you have to do it yourself. Doing it also helps you understand what the effect does so you can apply it in a different way. There has been a suggestion for a macro feature though so we'll see...

Change the range to a high number(30-50) and it will get close.
