Ego Eram Reputo

Ed's Color Filter would have been my next suggestion Glad you got it sorted.

Okay, how about this one: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?showtopic=14522

@Mofeghi: I've merged your two threads into this single one. This way you can keep all your images together in the one thread (one is all you're allowed in the Pictorium).

Hi joshjoshajosh - welcome to the forum. Try the Grim Color Reaper, Kill Color or Color to Alpha plugins (there are quite a few more that will do the same job).

No you cannot edit the dll. What you can do is download a plugin like Color to Alpha. This plugin will allow you to specify which color to keep and the rest will be made transparent.

I think you are referring to the saturation. Try Adjustments | Hue / Saturation + move the Saturation slider up.

You want a gradient from gray to red to become all red? Option 1: Use the Paint Bucket tool and fill the shape with red. I filled your demo image with two clicks at the default 50% tolerance. Option 2: If the shape is a regular rectangle, draw a new filled rectangle in red.

Clarifying: In order to "use" the font you'll have to import each character as an image. Changing a font in this way does not make the changed font usable from the Text tool

Here's the album art that mejallen is referring to: I'm not sure if I'm using an older version of the plugin - but I got a nicer effect with Curvature set to 8.00

I sticky this. Awesome tutorial.

Hey Sean - welcome! I think that the problem you have/had with the Edit menu was that most of the options in that menu are specific to a Selection being active or something being in the clipboard: Undo + Redo Require an action has been performed on the opened image in order to be available to Undo the action and then Redo it. Cut + Copy + Erase Selection + Fill Selection + Invert Selection + Deselect Require an active Selection. Paste + Paste in to New Layer + Paste in to New Image Require something is contained in the clipboard. Select All This should be available. I sincerely hope the book helps. What you'll find in it is a distillation of forum wisdom, Rick's blog, the online documents and years of exploration. I wrote it as a kick-start for beginners, but added enough depth to teach advanced users a little something too

For help with the 1603 error - users are generally directed to this thread: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/18931-fatal-installation-error-1603-fix/ I hope it helps.

Image Size of 200% is the lower threshold at which the Pixel Grid will appear. This makes sense, because at lower magnification the grid takes up more pixels than the image.

Welshy is correct. I couldn't have said it better. What great minds....

You're missing most of the fun! I'd be lost without these two: Flatten: Ctrl+ Shift + F Paste into a new image: Ctrl + Alt + V Try the Alt key when chaining selections = changes the selection mode to Subtract - so you can remove bits of an original selection!

No shame there Scooter - I use Photobucket exclusively! Where this issue has been raised previously there was a recommendation to try another hosting service, like ImageShack. Give it a whirl and see if it works.

Just checked. Third variant from the bottom of the DDS list is A4R4G4B4 - I'm guessing this is the same. You need to use File | Save As... to open the save dialog then select the DDS extension from the drop down list in that dialog. Specify a filename (and all that) then click OK. When the DDS dialog opens, scroll to the bottom of the list of variants to find the one I indicated. Select it and save.

Sounds like one of the DDS variants. If it doesn't appear in the list (when saving as a DDS) then, as Rick said, it's not possible.

Which image hosting service are you using?

While in Paint.NET it's 32-bit RGBA. When you save it, the file is formatted to whatever you specify.

@Cookies and I collaborated, as Cookies had some wonderful improvements in mind for my original plugin. You can find his (much better) version here: Lightning

The entire list is probably a lot larger than you imagine. I know, I compiled such a list for one of the Appendices in my book. An A4 page is not going to cut it unless you're printing REALLY small or culling some lesser used keyboard commands.

That's a plugin for importing PS files. I think Renee wants to use PS effects. Note: Third party effects and filters may be able to be imported into Paint.NET. Built in PS effects cannot be run by Paint.NET. If I am right then Renee needs one of these: PdnFF or PSFilterPDN. Beware that these very complex tools are not simple to set up. They need to be installed, the filter/effect needs to be downloaded and then Paint.NET, the plugin and the filter/effect all need to be able to speak to each other.

Paint.NET won't preserve the layers unless you export the image in a format that can be handled. There are only a few of those. There is a Paint.NET plugin that allows loading and saving of the PhotoShop format - it is possible to export your image in this format?
