  1. Make a selection with the Magic Wand or other selection tool, then press Delete.

    Save as PNG or GIF.

    That's one way to make transparency.

    There are a number of ways to create transparency.

    The most appropriate way will depend on the particular image that you are working on.

    Can you post links to some examples?

  2. Try this:

    Install Simon Brown's Printer+ plugin.

    ===========================================================

    Open your resized image.

    Expand the canvas size to full A4 size, anchored Middle.

    Image > Canvas Size...

    Print using the plugin, set to A4 with zero margin size.

    Your image should print out at the size that you want it to be in the center of the page.

  3. Aislin,

    When you have jagginess in a small area, like the teeth and blood trail here,

    it is feasible to do anti-aliasing as pixel art/pixel editing.

    Zoom in and color-pick a color adjacent to where you'll be editing.

    On a new layer, add a few pixels to fill in, then reduce the layer opacity.

    Make another new layer and repeat until it looks right.

    Here's a PDN file with the edits to the tooth on the viewer's left.

    Switch the visibility of the top layer on and off to see the difference.

    You can press F4 on various layers to get a sense of the layer opacities that are typical.

  4. OK. Those aren't brushes, those are effect plugins.

    And they do belong in the Effects folder, not the Custom Brushes folder.

    If you have them installed in the Effects folder already, close and open Paint.NET.

    If they still don't show in the Effects menu or a sub-menu,

    make a full-size screenshot of your open Effects folder

    showing the contents and the full path in the address field.

    Post the direct link of the screenshot here.

  5. Create your numbered circles on a new (transparent) layer.

    Save that layer as a PNG file set to read-only.

    Any time you want to use it, import it into your new project:

    Layers > Import From File

    Make a Rectangle select around the number that you need, leaving transparency all around the object.

    Then, copy and paste into a new layer above your working background image.


    Non-finicky selection method.
