Overlays for videos in PNG format
Sarkut replied to Windz One's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
If you want the background area where the logo overlaps to remain transparent, you will have to save as 32-bit PNG. -
Make icon edge transparent (from white background)
Sarkut replied to madlan's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
See if this makes them look OK: Set Magic Wand tolerance to zero. Click on white > Delete. Apply AA's Assistant plugin effect at default settings. -
Saving & Replaying Video/Animations (.AVI plugin)
Sarkut replied to ultrakiddo's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
The .AVI file type plugin won't even load on my system. I believe that it is obsolete and unsupported. -
Hold the Shift key down to rotate in 15 degree increments. ========================================

Yes, good point, the Ed Harvey Vignette plugin would need to be done on a white layer. That could be used as an alpha mask, as is. Or the black-on-white vignette could have the Black and Alpha+ plugin effect applied, and could then be colored with the Silhouette Plus plugin. =========================================== The Stu's Effects Vignette plugin will make the vignette directly on a new alpha layer.

This may help: Radius Fill Corners

If you have your black vignette on a separate layer, you can change it to any color you want. You could use Mike Ryan's Silhouette Plus plugin. Or use the vignette as an alpha mask on a layer filled with the color of your choice.

After installing the Gradient Mapping plugin, It can be accessed from the Adjustments menu.

You're welcome.

Install the Gradient Mapping plugin from the link at the top of this tutorial. Then download and install the XML file from the Hidden Content at the end of the same tutorial. Apply the Gradient Mapping effect with that pre-set loaded to the blade layers. (Duplicate the blade layers first so that you have a non-colored version available if you want it later.) (Don't do the whole tutorial on the blade, just the Gradient Mapping step.) (Be sure to put a checkmark at Preserve Alpha) .

There are many ways of doing this. Using the Recolor tool is one way. http://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/RecolorTool.html =================================== You could position a yellow fill layer beneath the image layer, and use the Grim Color Reaper or Color to Alpha plugin on the image layer. That could turn the black to alpha, and let the yellow show through. .

Sarkut replied to RaveN's topic in Plugins - Publishing ONLY!
Which plugins specifically are you trying to install? -
Look in the Recycle Bin. If the Paint.NET folder is there, restore it. Then try to uninstall it from: Control Panel > Programs and Features > Uninstall or Change a Feature.

remove background from image
Sarkut replied to thesponge's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
There is more than one thing that may be causing this. After cropping the circular selection, be sure that the gray-and-white checkerboard that indicates transparency is showing in the cropped away corner sections. Save as PNG, not JPEG or other file types. (JPEG won't preserve transparency) When pasting on top of another image, paste into a new layer above the image layer. Don't paste directly into the image layer. . -
