Hey Andrew, Thank you for your help. Hello Pixie & Iron, thank you for answering. Allow me to put an end to your incorrect understanding - I was belittling myself & acknowledging my own lack of expertise. You needn't feel my insulting myself is in anyway a reflection on or meant for you. There wasn't innuendo at all, you guys are absolute masters, which is why I mentioned 'listening to the two clever people from our history' because I'd read the go in here, change this to that, copy this & alter that, then it would work (Trinity's post) - which I'd hesitate to do due to my inexperience but had still wanted to use Toli's effect. It was never my intention to slight any of you. I'm really in awe of the gifts people display in the forums. It looks as if you thought I was being nasty to someone. Perhaps you are unused to finding honest people championing you & blaming themselves for their own inadequacies, that you were under the impression I was being unkind to Toli. I hope you are both satisfied on my intent & mindset now and can accept my explanation as being genuine. Hi Toli, thank you for not getting upset & also quietly chastising me. I meant what I'd said, it reads as an awesome extension & I hope that I'll have the grey matter to make use of it & others' writers (Pyros') effects. As much as I'd love to get the most out of Paint.net, I don't really have the time for the learning curve. I've a 'sort of' ability to use in a simple manner but it is not my industry, so battle now & then, when I need it. Like now, I need create something beyond my immature grasp which impresses as professional. So must find out how to get the desired result & do it within my own time constraints. All the best to everyone.

No Offense Toli & Pyro, but feel like a kid over-hearing adults, does the (awesome sounding) plugin work after all in PDN 4.0? Is it a simple cretin install for 'vacuum for brains' people like myself? Or do I need go back to school, discover how to manipulate the known universe to install? Shh! For sure you going to say go back to school... I'd just been following Welshblues lead on Glossy effect https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/26860-glossy-metallic-text/ and seem to have wondered into a discussion between Newton/Einstein that has left me very non-plussed as to continue or not. Thanks

Forget about the waxing lyrical ... this is painting lyrical ! & Amusing too. Seriously guys thank you for your input. Especially the one about the original date being 3 yrs old - that was really dumb of me not to take cognizance of the date (must be work load getting to me). The rest of you fellows thank you for the further discussion & LOL's. Good natured humour like y'all gave, makes the forum a really GOOD thing to be part of ! i,e, Creative people are happy people, are funny people are damn good human beings.( ... Yeah! Post tutorials together one thread) [see?] are clever people too

Hey buddy, can you go into greater detail for me please? If you can be very specific, I'd appreciate it. Thanks a ton

Rick, thanks for the advise & quick response. I'll do just that. I am running 3.5.10 BTW, fairies (yeah sure! finger trouble) musta hid the '0' from view No need to answer this but if I've got the same program as all others, surely it should've been there already, like with yours. I wouldn't have normally messed with a program file in any event. Cheers & happy Paint.net'íng

Hey all! I've downloaded Boltbait Pack & dpyplugins6.1, when I came to install them as per tutorial on the forum I see I have individual DLL files for Effects but no folder as mentioned by the Posters. This is what my Paint.net directory looks like ... Pls can one of you knowledgeable people tell me where they must go to in order to work? I do have a pressing need for the Word Art Effect, my business is bogged down until I can use the capability of it to complete things. Thanks! Version 3. 5.1
