You rock Myrddin! It worked Sorry about all the quotes....I told you I was computer illiterate! tee hee :oops: Thanks a lot! My eyes are sparkling already (unsharp mask)!

I'm afraid you'd have to walk me through this. I'm pretty computer illiterate. sorry ;( I'm quickly running out of ideas with which to help you. Could you try a reinstall of Paint.NET, please? This includes manually deleting the Paint.NET system folder after the uninstallation.We'll try a complete, fresh restart to see if that sorts you out. We'll have you back up and running in no time! Don't read it then (I was tempted to omit the smiley...)

Thanks for the suggestions, I don't know what the problem is. I'm about to give up I checked the Pc and we're both listed as administators, so thats not the problem. I followed that link you sent and learned how to unblock dll. That didn't help. I even tried downloading a random plugin from the PDN site in case it was the email attachment that didnt work. That plugin didn't work either. I really love PDN and now I feel like I'm going to miss out on so many cool effects! Thanks for trying.

No, you're not underestimating my skill.....I really don't know anything about this stuff. I just downloaded PDN a few weeks ago and this is my first attempt at plugins. Someone emailed me the plugins with instructions and it seems I did everything right, it's just not showing up in PDN. What do you mean by unblocking DLL?? Also, I've read that I have to be installing under system administrator. How do I know who this is? My hubby and I both have log ins. Sorry if I'm totally dumb with this stuff ; )

Please help. I'm trying to install plugins, namely the Unsharp Mask (but it came with a bunch of others) and I cant seem to get it to work. I've been reading through the threads and it seems others had this problem, but none of the solutions worked for me. Problem: .dll files show up in my effects folder, but are no where to be found when I open PDN. Any thoughts???
