I closed the Image_Storage space on web host file server and remove the dead links in the Paint.NET forum. I will be hosting my works, on my own website soon and linking to my tutorials from there also. So this is it! I am officially leaving this web space. Nice meeting you in cyberspace. Best Wishes!

In a rush to share, I am not mad at you! 🙂

@toe_head2001 Shouldn't the year of today's update be 2020 and not 2019?

The problem that you are experiencing does not sound like a Paint.NET problem. I seems that some of your Windows file privileges has somehow been restricted. Are the options such as 'Save as' been grayed out? Also 'moving' groups of files is a Windows function, not a PDN function.

The web has a wealth of video tutorials on the process. Here is a link to some of them: Remove background with paint.net

There is no current open source version of Paint.NET for any OS, including Windows! (Free is not the same as open source) https://opensource.com/resources/what-open-source

There are video tutorials explaining 'layers' in Paint.NET. There are threads in this forum that explain how to utilize layers in Paint.NET (I have written a few myself!) Here is a great video tutorial link on using layers in Paint.NET: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nz32lb6Jgy8

Most of the plugin creators include a brief tutorial on applying their plugin, but you won't know until you go! Their is no instant learning plugin to the brain as shown in the 'Matrix' movie!

Relax! If you can read or follow video instructions, you will do fine! 🙂 Video tutorial links: Text and paint.net

Greetings, You will need to create a layer for your text and the use one of the text formation plugins to make the design that you want. https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/15260-plugin-index/ You can find tutorials on applying text to layers in this forum: https://forums.getpaint.net/forum/23-text-effects/

You can also do an Internet search for 'free alternatives to Adobe LightRoom'.

You need to install the current Windows updates and update your graphics drivers?

Here are the links to a couple of plugins that can help in adjusting font spacing: https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/111094-spaced-text-variable-letter-and-line-spacing/ https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/25214-text-update-20140427/ You can also create your font layout in MS Word, Publisher, and/or PowerPoint and copy and paste it into a Paint.NET transparent layer.

I had suggested earlier in this thread that using the dotted halftone screen effect was the way to go and provided a link to another thread that commented about creating halftones screens for a graphic design. With the use of these two plugins you can produce something very close to the 'comic book' look: Effects > Color Space > RBG to CMYK (RGB2CMYK.dll) by BoltBait Effects > Stylize > Halftone (EdHarvey.Effects.dll) by Ed Harvey You would have to create 4 duplicate layers of your color image and then run the RBG2CMYK plugin on each layer but changing to a different color of the CMYK group each time with the CMY Intensity set to 255. (Remember to give each layer of the RBG2CMYK the correct name; K(black), M(magenta), C(cyan), and Y(yellow)) Next you would run the ED Harvey Halftone plugin on each layer with the dot angle set to 22.5 degrees. Before running the plugin on each layer you will have to set the primary color of the dots for the layer's halftone: ( I used a dot size of 4, which is the smallest. For my project I should of used a dot size of ~6) [Layer Order From The Top] Black is R=0, B=0, G=0 Cyan is R=0, B=255, G=255 Magenta is R=255, B=255, G=0 Yellow is R=255, B=0, G=255 Last add a bottom layer that is all white.

Overtime I have collected ~4000 fonts, but rarely use more than a couple or three dozen. Within the few that I use, kerning and tracking is the thing that make the fonts pleasing to view in a project. Using creative kerning and tracking to adjust spacing will help your font projects also!

Has it been resolved why the 'Color Matrix' Adjustment Plugin does not work?

Your assumption is correct! I was able to locate a Moshyfawn YouTube channel for him doing a PIP narration of an in-play video game capture from somewhere in Russia.

I am sorry about that EER! Thanks for the heads-up! BTW: I have seen several forum members, including moderators, give reverence and links to the GitHub; including your self. I thought it was legit.
