  1. Hello,

    I am doing a lot of Re-sizing when I take screenshots, but as I have a widescreen here, my screenshots is too wide. So I have to create a selection :MoveSelectionTool: and drag the nubs to hit 800x800, so I then is able to re-size my picture down to 256x256. Sometimes I am having trouble getting a 800x800 selection exactly, so I was wondering if there were any shortcut key for adjusting the size of the selection exactly?

    Thanks

  2. The best result I can get using Power Stretch is this:

    EDIT: I tried Polar Transformation, Curmudgeon, but the workaround won't give me precise result and a straight brush width yet.

    I haven't succed yet in finding an effect which is faster and better compared to my manually 7-layered bend for my other example image, so I guess I am asking for some sort of plugin here. Posted another image below:

    Multibend could be a suggestion too, so small distortions could be applied to the line without it changes width or gets stretched some way.

  3. I am still unsure if your getting it or not. I'll show you what I mean by theese 2 pictures:

    Here is my test image which is an image of a tree in the middle of the jungle.

    Now, I would like to bend this image 90 degrees to the right. Since the picture will become smaller because of canvas size I expanded the sides to the left and to the right (unfortunately forgot that at the bottom). Here is my result after "bending" it.

    This is what the bending plugin can be used to mainly. It took me about 30 minutes to modify the picture to be bended using 7 layers, a calculator and Rotate/Zoom. Therefore I request a plugin to avoid the long time it takes if I wanted a 100% round bend for my image.

  4. Hello,

    I am often drawing maps of my track ideas and I recently thought of beginning doing that using Paint.NET. Unfortunately I have only found it possible to do maps with curves if I draw my maps black & white without any use of textures.

    Above you can see/download a picture of how long I've come with my straight line. I have been trying a few plugins such as Bulge & Powerstretch, but the results didn't come along as I wanted them.

    If there was a way to Bend the line a way so it ended up like above would make things easier for me and probably for other people too. An example of how that could look like will come up, if needed.

  5. Or you could

    -> Use the magic wand to get most of the face selected

    -> Copy the face and paste it onto a new layer (Let's call it layer01)

    -> Duplicate that layer and uncheck the old layer01

    -> select layer02 and use a gaussian blur, zoom blur :ZoomBlur: or a median :Median:

    -> Go back to layer01 and choose magic wand (Tolerance: 0%) (Flood mode: Global ). Wand outside the face

    -> Go to layer02 and press delete

    Afterwards try fiddle around with the layer settings. I think that should do it.

  6. I am not sure if I understood the question right, but you can use the magic wand to select a certain color by 1 click. Edit the range from 50% till whatever you want, and press Ctrl+Shift before clicking on the color with the magic wand. For example you can click on a orange color with tolerance at 12% and then get all orange colors looking like yours.

  8. Take a screenshot of a window like the ones you see on the picture, then paste :Paste: them into Paint.NET.

    Duplicate :EditCopy: the layer and go to the first layer ("Background"). Go to Layer -> Mirror vertical :Vertical:

    Go back to your duplicated layer (The one which isn't mirrored vertically)

    Open Rotate/Zoom :RotateZoom: (Ctrl+Shift+Z) and play around with the globe in upper left corner till it looks the way you want it. Press OK.

    Go to your vertical mirrored layer and open Rotate/Zoom :RotateZoom: and press OK.

    Now Use the gradient tool :GradientTool: and make sure that the alpha channel option :AlphaChannel: is set. Now make a gradient from the start of your vertical mirrored window and to about the half way down.

    Image -> Flatten and you have your final result :)
