This plugin is very useful! Thank you, I appreciate your effort.

Thanks for the great feedback , everyone! @toe_head2001 I've applied all of your suggestions , except for disabling the UI items , as I have no idea how to do it. @TechnoRobbo I've now included the option to draw polygons (which turned out a bit trickier than expected ) @medora & seerose I think it should be resolved now Updated version is now included in the original post. You can make more fancy shapes like these: Also here is the source code: circleFractal2.zip

Circle Fractal (updated) I was experimenting with c# and it occurred to me to write this simple Paint.NET plugin. With it , you can do shapes like these: Let me know what you think. circleFractal2.zip

For the first one , you can get Inksketch+ from my plugins (use the attachments) , and maybe use the built-in Median effect for more rounded edges. For the second one, i believe there was a plugin called "Black and alpha" , search for it. it'd help .

That's really awesome . i never expected such an awesome tool! now i can't wait for PDN 4 ...

This is surly the best plugin for PDN ever , it's soo awesome . I think this is the turn of PDN from normal to professional ! great job ,pyro !

CurrentPixel.R=(oldPixel.R+CurrentPixel.R)/2 CurrentPixel.G=(oldPixel.G+CurrentPixel.G)/2 CurrentPixel.B=(oldPixel.B+CurrentPixel.B)/2 ? edit that to fit your needs.

would someone please tell me what a grunge is ?

i know and you can do that directly in code lap btw

it's very useful , i liked it a lot ! it'd be much more awesome if you add an ' Effect mix slider ' , it'll help me to use it to clarify some images thanks for your effort. Ahmed.

if i were you , i'd start with a big size and use the Pen tool to draw everything as in reality . after that you can go ahead and do some resizing , coloring , and antialiasing . Ahmed.

i thought he was asking for Paint.NET resizing

just to clarify something: Paint.NET has four ways of Resampling images when resizing . I assume that you've used the 'Nearest neighbor' option , that option does no smoothing at all , it's used to have the image with all the pixels almost in their places. if you want the result to be similar to the original , with the most smoothing , 'Best Quality' is your cup of tea : Here is how the result would look if you use the 'Best Quality' option: Hope that was helpful.. ps: i prefer your new one xD Ahmed

Thankyou ! o'll sure give it a try later .

wait , you meant smoothing works on each pixel ? can you link me to a wikipedia topic, please ?

i was thinking of a close effect and wrote some pseudo code a while previously. i'm happy to hear that pyrochild is working on this though ! .

if you need some simple smoothness effect you can simple pick the color of the surrounding pixels of each pixel and use the average as your pixel color . this actually simulates Paint.NET's built-in Median effect , and it gives a nice smooth for your effects . this might be coded like so: ColorBgra CurrentPixel,pxl1,pxl2,pxl3,pxl4,pxl5,pxl6,pxl7,pxl8; CurrentPixel = src[x,y]; pxl1= src[Math.Min(x+1,rect.Right-1),y]; pxl2= src[Math.Max(x-1,rect.Left),y]; pxl3= src[x,Math.Min(y+1,rect.Bottom-1)]; pxl4= src[x,Math.Max(y-1,rect.Top)]; pxl5= src[Math.Min(x+1,rect.Right-1),Math.Min(y+1,rect.Bottom-1)]; pxl6= src[Math.Min(x+1,rect.Right-1),Math.Max(y-1,rect.Top)]; pxl7= src[Math.Max(x-1,rect.Left),Math.Min(y+1,rect.Bottom-1)]; pxl8= src[Math.Max(x-1,rect.Left),Math.Max(y-1,rect.Top)]; CurrentPixel.R=(byte)((CurrentPixel.R+pxl1.R+pxl2.R+pxl3.R+pxl4.R+pxl5.R+pxl6.R+pxl7.R+pxl8.R)/9); CurrentPixel.G=(byte)((CurrentPixel.G+pxl1.G+pxl2.G+pxl3.G+pxl4.G+pxl5.G+pxl6.G+pxl7.G+pxl8.G)/9); CurrentPixel.B=(byte)((CurrentPixel.B+pxl1.B+pxl2.B+pxl3.B+pxl4.B+pxl5.B+pxl6.B+pxl7.B+pxl8.B)/9); Hope you find this helpful . Ahmed.

I like the output .

i don't know if i commented here before , but anyways , your graphics are all awesome!

lol i haven't updated it yet . i mean i don't have a lot of free time , my TODO list is quite full , so for now you can install them all in the zip file . i'll update them really soon thanks for passing by! Ahmed.

it's nice but it's only dithering the top 26 pixels

here is mine (quick made) [Original Image] [Clone] [Motion Effect] (Put this as final image, please) Ahmed.

i've seen the images in your link. i can't tell that all these are just basic 2D art. it's possibly first built in a 3D rendering program such as Blender , or some images of actual buildings has been added .
