Okay, I get that and that's fine. The editing I'm trying to do is using an eraser, or creating a new layer in order to blur some parts. Surely I should still be able to do that?

Hi, I'm relatively new to Paint.net, as well as this forum, and apologise if this question has been asked about a thousand times before. I've been trying to edit to images together to blend as one image - ie, someone from a different picture into a group picture. However, after having difficulty with layering in order to blend the person into the image, I saved the image and flattened it as prompted. I figured if Paint.net somehow 'forgot' about the fact it had been layered I'd be able to begin again and edit it at will? Anyway, apparently not as now I can do nothing to the saved image at all, and closed it after saving so can't edit the fact I flattened it either. Are there any other options available to me? As it's not looking too bad, just needs some final tweaking, and I'd rather not go through the lengthy process all over again. Thanks.
