Which framework version is it targeting? If v4.0, try v3.5 SP1.

When changing a psd template I purchased, I'm able to change the text in the layer section, but for some reason it's not showing up on the actual page. Am I doing something wrong. Thanks.
That's just the layer name. Text can't be edited natively.

Does everyone agree with PM Entries, and Forum voting? All in favor say "Aye"!
As a rule for all competitions?
-
The directions in the main thread are contradictory:
PLEASE PM THE ENTRIES TO ME, CSM725.DO NOT POST THE ENTRIES IN THIS THREAD!
This thread is for posting entries only! -
I took the picture on the right and brightened it, and now it's lighter. Magic? filename? Maybe transparency?
Less contrast = less colours = smaller palette is my guess. There are lots of ways you can slightly influence the file size.

Unless you can find a program to save a TIFF at a specific size, your could try making small adjustments until you reach your target size.

PM entries OK with me, but PollPaddy not, because it is an external site, that means you sing-up the PDN forum, and don't vote through it, so you can vote more than once in those kind of sites by deleting your history or using another browser,
If they're that desperate to cheat, they'll find some way, like creating a sockpuppet (assuming there aren't any post count restrictions on voting).
and they don't support the IP address voting...!They do.

BTW When you change the size of one layer all the others follow suit. This is also a burden.
The easiest way to resize (as in scale) individual layers is to copy it to another document, resize that and transfer it back. Or just use the move selected pixels tool.

Layers -> Import From File

If you've read the first message - I DON'T add a drawing. I only save an original image with the same format.
When I open a text document in Notepad and save it without editing, I get the same file size. It is logical to expect the same result from the image editor...
File size is not the same as quality. The quality slider determines how much quality will be sacrificed in this save. Any quality you have lost before is gone forever and you can't even keep the benefit of a smaller file size.
Once you open a JPEG image it's converted into a bitmap and any quality loss is similar to quality loss resulting from a scanned photo being torn. It may be a lower-quality image to anyone that sees it (just as it would be a low-quality image if it was taken with a shaky camera), but that doesn't mean it has a smaller file size.
-
That is, paint.net can improve bad quality? You think that this is possible?
That is, an source image with poor quality stores information about perfect quality? 
If you open an 80% quality image, add a drawing on a new layer and save it as a 95% quality JPEG the file size will be larger and the drawing will be only slightly distorted, but the old image won't get any better.
-
It will be roughly 95% of the quality of the original, but the file size will still be (roughly) the same as if the original was saved at 95%.

Do they have an API?

What does Facebook tell you when you try?

Edit: Nevermind

It's on my end, i'll see what I can do.
-
Search for fading blending.
-
Also, if it's a logo for something important you might want to create a vector using something like Inkscape instead so you can resize it later on.
-
If you're worried about it causing damage, create a system restore point before using it.

From your blog's comments:
I use the Spanish localization of Paint.NET, but some plugins insist on creating English-namedWould it be possible to have Paint.NET silently use the localised submenu (IE SubMenuNames) when a plugin passes something like "distort?"
-
Should be okay now.

Replay to Alpha Quadrant: Sorry about that, i've just fixed the link.

Also, you'll want to keep a copy of the DLL, cause the mods probably won't keep the link up for long.
The latest version of Paint.NET supports DDS without the DLL being present.

Full Paint.net Dowload
in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Posted
The full package is 3.3MB (its actually 3.5MB, though). The only component downloaded by it is the .NET framework if you don't already have it.
