Yes, I do not have the Paint.NET user files in my documents. Thank you.

Pdn crashed while i was doing the aurora effect tut. I finished it and opened gradient mapping, tried to change colors and it crashed.

Wierd. It worked for me :?

Sorry about confusion. updated version is available i checked. viewtopic.php?f=16&t=22881

i got the same thing. Here are the details File: E:\Paint.net\Effects\Vandermotten.PaintDotNetEffects.dll Effect Name: Vandermotten.PaintDotNetEffects.DropShadowEffect Full error message: System.MethodAccessException: PaintDotNet.ColorWheel..ctor() at Vandermotten.PaintDotNetEffects.DropShadowConfigDialog.InitializeComponent() at Vandermotten.PaintDotNetEffects.DropShadowConfigDialog..ctor() at Vandermotten.PaintDotNetEffects.DropShadowEffect.CreateConfigDialog() at PaintDotNet.Menus.EffectMenuBase.RunEffect(Type effectType) It was'nt happening sometime before :? Maybe its a problem with Paint.NET V.3.31?
