    I am right-handed and I use my right hand index to left-click.

    No I don't have another browser.

    I used windows Explore getting "The Compressed (zipped) Folder is invalid or corrupted" error.

    When I point at "pyrochild_plugins_2009-11-30" I get "Files/Folders in Zip file: 16"

    When I point at "Vandermotten.PaintDotNetEffects" I get "Files/Folders in Zip file: 1"

    When I point on "EdHarvey-Effects-20080826" I get "Type: WinZip file"

    At last I came back to this subject.

    After trying to save my image in .gif and .jpeg etc., I saved in .png and the result is much, much better though I had to sacrifice some space.

    Thank you for your help everybody.

    I have another question though.

    With the silver metal I was OK, but can you give me the RGB or Hex of the gold metal, please?

    Planets with rings (i.e. how to create a Saturn)

    in Tutorial Graveyard

    One of the many good tuts that I tried. Great rings effect.

    I started mine with the Add Noise plugin. The perspective isn’t that good but at least both axis, i.e. the one of the planet and that of the rings match, not like some I saw. :wink:

    Thanks for a great idea.

    Here is my version of Saturn:

    [Edit] Looks much better now (I hope) :wink:

    Call me expired. Please. Your tut is one of the greatest.

    Your place is on mount Olympus. But please think of us mortals.

    It took me ages to figure out what I was doing wrong between “Draw a white filled circle…” and “Using a transparency gradient, …” I kept forgetting to change :AllColorChannels: to :AlphaChannel: and vice versa. Another thing that confused me was the Transparency % which for me newbie would have been better with the minus sign i.e. Then set the Transparency to about -50%

    Well here is my try :)

    Thank you “Call me expired. Please.” I got it.

    But in Step 13 “Then set the Transparency to about 50% Transparent.” setting Adjustments/Transparency 50% was a mess. So I double clicked the Layer Properties and set the Opacity to 100 (there is no % in that setting window) and it worked perfectly.

    Thanks again.

    I need some help here please

    In Step 12 by “Draw a white filled circle…” you mean to select the Ellipse Select (shortcut key: S) tool draw a circle and fill it with white or to select the Ellipse (shortcut key: O) tool on “Draw filled shape”, draw a white circle like you instructed in Step 2 “using the Ellipse tool on "Draw filled shape", draw a dark gray circle”

    In Step 13 “Using a transparency gradient, draw a linear gradient …” how do I do this?

    Realistic Chrome Text

    Madjik I found the “BN Machine” font you used for the chrome tut, thank you. I tried the tut using this font but I didn’t get the desired result. Can you tell us how you got that result, kind of round yet flat letters, please?

    Ok what I did till now is this: 1. d/l AnimGIF.dll and put it in Paint.NET\FileTypes. 2. d/l

    download the "library/command line" file from this site. Then unzip it, open the "apng" folder and copy "apng.jar" to your "Paint.NET user files" folder.

    and yes I tried to save a file and there are options to save in .agif and .apng.

    But still I cannot find it to run it

    @Simon Brown-

    I found and downloaded AnimGIF.zip, unzipped it and put it in the Paint.NET\Effects folder, with the other effects. Some questions: Do I have to save each layer as .gif file type? How many layers would I need (don’t shock me)? I don’t think I have to flatten the layers. Will it animate only in PDN? Anyway I need all the help that you can give me. Thank you.

    Unfortunately, because Paint.NET is not a 3D image editor, it is very difficult to rotate 3D-looking objects after finalization. The best solution would be to re-do the cube and spin it in Shape3D before finalizing it.

    I saw picture spinning cubes made by @MetalAngelz and by @sleightly magic. I cannot post in the thread cause it's locked.
