Thanks a lot for the help. I tried the plugin and it worked perfectly, exactly what i needed.

Hi, I'm trying to make an icon which has to be a.png file with only 16 colours. I have an image that i want to use which is a jpeg, so i was hoping to reduce the amount of colours to 16 then save the file type as a .png. However i can't find an option to reduce the number of colours. Can someone plz help me out or give me the link to the proper tutorial as i couldn't find one. Cheers,

OMG I've just tried what you suggested and it's exactly what i was looking for. I can't believe it was as simple as that. Thanks very much for replying

PROBLEM SOLVED (Kind Of) Hi, I have managed to get round this problem by selecting the 'Rotate/Zoom' option in the 'Layer' menu. Once i select this i can use the pan function to move the whole layer and adjust it's position. This will work as the button is the only image on the layer but it means that i still don't know how to select something on a layer and be able to move and reposition that selection. If you can help me on this or give me the link then plz do. Cheers,

At first i found the 'import from file' method and i tried that, then i tried the magic wand cut and paste (from the imported file onto a new layer) method but i end up with the same problem. I can't select the image of the button on each layer so that i can adjust it's position by a couple of pixels. They are all .png files

Hi, this is the first time i have used paint.net and considering it's free i think its really good. My first project is to create a 192x192 square containing 5 buttons. These buttons will be turned into links as part of a .pdf document i am creating. So i thought i would place each button pic (64x64) onto a layer so that i could position each button separately and then merge them into one image when i have them all in the correct position. The problem i'm having is that when i import a button pic into it's layer and position it, and then go on to the next button pic and place that in it's layer , i sometimes want to go back to the previous layer to adjust the position of the button pic it contains but find that i cannot move it. It seems to move the background underneath it i think. So basically what i want to learn is how to move the images on each layer i have previously created without it affecting anything else. I have used layers in image editing software before but paint.net seems to work slightly differently, but i want to stick with it as i like it and it suits my netbook well. Cheers,
