Picture Editing Request

All right, I think we're done here. -
Paint.NET is getting noticed!
david.atwell replied to barkbark00's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Paint.NET gets a shout-out in the latest Computerphile video! Only 7 seconds in. The video is complicated, but super useful for visualizing how image resizing works. -
Is there a way to open save a corrupt Paint.NET file?
david.atwell replied to HELEN's topic in Troubleshooting & Bug Reports
I've also heard good things about Backblaze.com . -
crash while painting or coloring a blank image
david.atwell replied to darrenvox's topic in Troubleshooting & Bug Reports
If you're running Windows XP, your Paint.NET problems are the least of your issues. Microsoft discontinued security support for that OS over two years ago, which means that if your system hasn't already been compromised (that is, hacked), it likely soon will be. -

Hard to draw a rectangle?
david.atwell replied to Ernie Pyle's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
When you paste something in, it is automatically selected. You do NOT have to flatten the image. You just have to deselect the pixels or choose the correct layer. -
Question about what plugins do
david.atwell replied to Humility's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
"Common" is used as a basic repository of code that the plugin authors in question use in all of their plugins, so that they can develop more quickly. No plugins actually appear in the program for those files, but they are necessary for other of their plugins to function. As for standalone effects, you'll need to check the Plugin Index. Some plugin authors make their plugins available as standalone downloads, some don't. I believe Ed is in the latter category, but I'm not sure. -
Yes, absolutely it would. Well, it would speed up launch, at least. PdN checks every plugin for compatibility every time the program opens, so the more plugins you have the longer that process would take. You can always pull plugins out of the root /Paint.NET/Effects folder and put them into a subfolder - such as /Paint.NET/Effects/Archive - where they won't be seen by the program but will be easily available if you find that you need them later.

Hard to draw a rectangle?
david.atwell replied to Ernie Pyle's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Not quite. You don't have to flatten the image, you just have to deselect the pixels you have selected from pasting in the screenshot. Hit Ctrl+D. Or, potentially, you're working on a layer that is covered up by the screenshot. Take a look and make sure the layer you're trying to draw upon is at the top. Paint.NET, like other image editors, only affects the pixels within the selection area on the selected layer. This doesn't violate Principle of Least Surprise, as it's standard for all image editors. -
That rule doesn't apply in the Localization forum.

Alternatively, if you have a photo where someone is looking to the right and you want to make them face the camera...that is impossible.

Heh. I actually emailed the URL of those exact posts to myself on Monday. Don't worry, it is coming. Eli rocks.

There are. Not always, but often enough.

We're happy to help you do the modification yourself, but while you're reading Rule 6, please also read Rule 23. Locked for breaking both. Feel free to open a new thread once you've read the rules.

Am I able to stream on twitch using Paint.net?
david.atwell replied to Ereson's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
People make YouTube videos of Paint.NET all the time. I'm sure you're fine. That said, if you really want to get all your ducks in a row, Rick Brewster is the creator (singular, just one guy). He's active on the forum, so he'll probably see this. -
Got my hopes up for Myrddin's return.

EER hits the mini-tuts page for the first time with a beautiful method for making lines thicker, which looks uncannily like a finger-paint effect!
