    The plugin you said works with DDS too, but it needs to rename .dds -> .dds2. I thought paint.net supports DDS "out-of-box". I was wrong?

     

    No, you are not wrong.  You should have the plain DDS in the drop down:

    It is a mystery why it's not there for you.  Did you download Paint.net from the website here?

  2. @marek jedlinski Welcome to the forum.  Yes, as @toe_head2001 says, the Alpha Mask is the way to go.  Don't forget to Copy the white lines to the clipboard, before you go to use Alpha Mask on the flattened layer.

    EDIT:  I think the reason you are having some trouble is because the lines are white.  Please read an explanation here, by Kemaru, about the Alpha mask:

     

     

    So, for another way to cut out your flattened blue layer is to:

     

    1.  Have your white lines on a transparent layer.

    2.  With the magic wand - select the white lines ...... i.e. marching ants around the lines.

    3.  Switched over to your 'flattened layer' with the nice texture - invert your selected white lines, then hit delete on your computer.

    4.  You should be left with just the textured lines.

    You say you're having trouble adding Plugins to your folder?  Do you have the Store bought Paint.net?  If so, you have to make the Folders yourself.

     

    " You just have to install them in a different location. Go to your Documents folder, create a folder called “paint.net App Files” (no quotes though), and then create a folder for each plugin type: Effects, FileTypes, and Shapes. And then put your plugins into each folder just like you’re used to with the Classic release."

     

    As for Plugin packs with the installer - that will depend on who uses the installer.  Older packs will probably not have that option.
