HOW TO INSTALL PLUGINS/General Plugin Troubleshooting Thread
Sarkut replied to RaveN's topic in Plugins - Publishing ONLY!
Looks good. How are the Pyrochild plugins working? -
I suggest making the red and black striped block with vertical stripes. Then tilt it and cut out a rectangular selection. You can use Layers > Rotate / Zoom to rotate the layer. If you do it this way, you can make a Rectangular Selection of the right size and use it repeatedly for each stripe. Just fill it with black, then shift it over using and the keyboard arrow keys. Once it's repositioned, fill it with red and reposition again, fill with black, etc. until you're done. You'll need to make it a good bit larger in area to start, to allow for the tilting and cutting.

Changing the colour or an object
Sarkut replied to British_eh's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
To make a circular selection, better to use the Ellipse Select tool while holding the Shift key down. You can make the doughnut hole with the same tool while holding down both the Shift key and the Alt key. This can remove a smaller circle from the inside of the circular selection made by the previous step. Use the Paintbrush or Paintbucket tool to fill in the selection. Go to the layer with the original skin, as you've said, to pick the colors. -

Depending on what you mean by that, you might want either the Feather Object plugin, or Adjustments > Brightness / Contrast. Or something else entirely. -

Sarkut replied to British_eh's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Not clear on what you're aiming towards. Do you want the blue circle enlarged? Get rid of the whitish fringes? Make the blue darker (mo black)? -
Beiginer trying to crop photo to add to another
Sarkut replied to mikell's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
My suggestion is to open the picture of you and your wife with PdN. Next, use Layers > Import From File... to add the robin on its own layer. Use to position the bird, then merge the layers > Save As... and you're done. -
I believe this is not possible. ==================== This might or might not be helpful: Paste. Ctrl + B. (Zoom to Window) Move selection. Ctrl + Shift + A. (Zoom to 100%) H (Pan tool shortcut)

Beiginer trying to crop photo to add to another
Sarkut replied to mikell's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
Can you use the Magic Wand on the white background and press Delete to get the result you want? Follow up with the Feather Object plugin to clean up the edges. -

Paint.NET crashing and installer problems?
Sarkut replied to Wilson's topic in Troubleshooting & Bug Reports
You could try downloading the installation file and upgrading manually rather than using the built-in updater. http://www.dotpdn.com/files/Paint.NET.3.5.1.Install.zip If any error messages etc. come up, pls. take screenshots to post. -
HOW TO INSTALL PLUGINS/General Plugin Troubleshooting Thread
Sarkut replied to RaveN's topic in Plugins - Publishing ONLY!
Datruel3gend: Many of the plugins have been updated to work with PDN v.3.51. You may need to update your .dlls with the current versions. If you could post a link to a full-sized screenshot showing the contents of your Paint.NET\Effects folder it may help troubleshoot why plugins aren't working reliably for you. -
odeho19: Not sure I'm following. To be rid of the blue, Wand it and press Delete. To be able to resize, move, etc. the cut-out over a background keep the cut-out on its own tranparent layer with the background on a layer below it.

how to recolor a simple picture
Sarkut replied to stevebirkbeck's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
stevebirkbeck: You could try this: If your original is not already in render form, you can remove the background by - Magic Wand > Delete > Feather Object plugin. Turn it to gray scale by - Adjustments > Black and White. Use Adjustments > Brightness / Contrast at 100 and 0 settings. Repeat. Now position a new layer above the adjusted hoody layer. Use the Paint Bucket tool to fill it with the yellow that you want to use. With the adjusted hoody layer active, Magic Wand the background area. Now, with the yellow layer active, press Delete. Set the yellow layer's Blend Mode to Multiply and merge it down onto the adjusted hoody layer. If you want the shading to look a bit different, use different settings with the Brightness / Contrast adjustment, at that step. -

viklas122: Paste your friends' transparent-ed image into a new transparent layer above the background, position it where you want it to be, with , then merge that layer down onto the background. -
Search up that Paint.NET folder and see if it's still going thru the Java directory.

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Application Data\Paint.NET\ Maybe?

Advice or suggestions on creating cells?
Sarkut replied to BlissC's topic in Paint.NET Discussion and Questions
BlissC: If you do a Vertical and Horizontal flip of the inner highlights/shadows relative to the outer highlights/shadows it will give a sense of a concave center portion as is typical in red blood cells. The center appears to stick out as they are now. -

What's up with the new version? It doesn't work at all for m
Sarkut replied to Caits's topic in Troubleshooting & Bug Reports
Re-installing may help. Is the "freezing project" on a fairly large canvas with many layers or fairly modest in size? Plenty of memory on the PC? Also, is your XP fully current on Service Packs and Windows Updates?
