Hehe, first off, sorry for the double post But haven't really been active these past months, other than the occassional lurking around the forums ^^ Think I'm gonna be able to find time for some more Paint.Net in the time to come, but back on track: Uploaded 3 new pictures, at the bottom of the thread, and also, I've gone over to Photobucket, as I find it easier to manage than ImageShack

I've also got this bug, and I use Opera as my browser. I've also made a thread about it, but couldn't come up with a solution there. Think someone also tested FireFox without experiencing the bug. What operating system are you running? I've got "Windows Vista Home Premium" 64-bits.

Thanks for the help BoltBait, though too bad it seems it's an 'impossible to fix' problem :? Though, while I read the thread you linked to, I just remembered one kinda obvious thing. I could always try to copy the layers I want to merge into a new picture, and then just merge them there.

Oh, and if anyone of you experiences a problem like this again, you could try this: Simply move half of all your fonts to another folder, and then start Paint.Net to see if it works now. If it does, it's because the bad font(s) is one or some of the fonts you moved. If it doesn't, it means that you've got at least 1 bugged font left in that directory. Then you simply follow the same routine, and move half of the remaining fonts. This could be a time-taking method if you have several bad fonts, but I ensure you it will work :wink:

I don't mean that the above layer's properties should replace the bottom layer's properties, but here's one way of telling it: I've found a solution around this, which is simply to merge layer 2 down to the bottom first, and then merge layer 3 down. Though, I can't always use this, as I sometimes need all my layers. Alternatively, I could let it be a layer by itself, but some times this can cause problems for me when I edit some of the other layers. Though it's not too big of a problem, but I just thought I'd report it.

Only way I can think of, would be to add 1 new font at a time, then start up Paint.Net and check if it works. Though, there's a lot of more professional people than me on these boards, so they might come up with a better answer :wink:

I'm not sure if this can help you, but if you saved it as a default image filetype (For example jpg, jpeg or png). Then your picture may have a preview thumbnail, and if so you could try to open it up in the Windows Picture Viewer and use the print screen function.

When I work with images, I often tend to use the blend modes in the layer's properties to make some nice effects, though there's a small glitch with it. Whenever I apply some blend mode, and then merge the layer down to the one below, it resets as if there was no blend mode on it. This always happens, unless if it's the bottom layer I merge it to. I'm not sure if this only effects the blend mode, or if it has an effect on the layer's transparancy too.

Man, you should've known just how many times I've wished for this feature I'll just hope it will be implemented one day, if not soon Edit: Bah, I just read BoltBait's reply towards this Oh well, nice while the dream lasted Also, I've an idea of my own. How about dockable tool windows? I've often found to my frustration, that when I have to zoom closely in on pictures, the windows always tends to be in my way. And usually I need them for what I do while zoomed down, so no use in trying to disable them either, so I believe this would be a highly appreciated feature for Paint.Net :wink:

There's several ways to do this, but the easiest way to do this gotta be this: Simply cover the whole canvas with a selection tool, and press delete, and there you've got your transparent background 8)

I meant these letters EDIT: yes, the letters from your last pic Hehe, thanks for clearing that up If you wonder how it's made it, just ask, as it's simple enough. At least when you got fonts to help you on the way Thanks :wink: Simple enough to make, with a little portion of luck Not 100% sure how to recreate it, but can try when I get time later

Actually, I didn't make the pencil, nor the eraser :oops: I was lazy at the time so I just decided to search up on google to find it Just a simple blur, maybe some minor editing for the pencil, but the eraser was more of a hazzle. Didn't knew it was such hard work to find pictures of erasers, so had to tweak it some And about the letters, do you mean my signature or the last picture of the post? Edit: I'm pretty sure this is the picture of the pencil I used, as I just looked it up. http://site.xara.com/news/october06/img/pencil37.png

Thanks Nice to know that I do at least 1 thing right By the way, I keep a .pdn backup of all my pictures, so just tell me what you think needs fixing :> Update: Just added 2 new pics to my gallery

Ash, I guess you're right when I think about it. At least if they got too many problems, they can probably use my tutorial so far to start on it

I know it's simple enough, but I thought when starting on it, why not just go all the way, to help out the newcomers too :>
