Adorabelle, I just downloaded a new plugin (yet another color replacer) and had the same prob. Then I noticed that the MAJORITY of plugins were not appearing. I looked into the author's install batch file (helpful, but not correct FOR MY VERSION of Paint.Net (4.0.6). After copying the .dll to C:\Program Files\paint.net\406\Effects the plugin appears in the Color dropdown under the Effects tab. Haven't tested yet with other missing plugins, but think I've hit on the solution for the version I'm running. Hope this helps you and others.

(BoltBait) What dropdown name should I look for since I can't find Hue/Saturation + ?

Sorry, BoltBait, your plugins appear to be fine, think I was confused by naming of .dll's and the way they appear in dropdown. Possible that same applies to EOEffects.dll, but naming conventions (file name/dropdown name) are sometimes confusing. Thanks for quick response.

Please ignore my earlier post (below). My confusion was in tying the .dll name to the name in the Effects dropdown. One effect that does NOT install is Hue/Saturation Plus, at least I don't see it. By the way (BoltBait) your documentation on installation of effects is excellent! As to EOEffects.dll, it shows up as a pie chart. Perhaps I mis-read, not what I was expecting. (This is text of the earlier post)... I'm far from expert, but can't seem to get plugins meant for Ver. 4.0 to work in latest verson (4.0.1). One of BoltBait's older ones (integrated?) appears, but not others in his latest pack. Also tried "EOEffects.dll" - it doesn't appear. Thanks, SFDeeJay

Jim, please accept my apologies. I erred from the first in assuming you wrote Edgemaster (because you jumped in quickly in an attempt to help). That is why I also thought you did the upload. Apparently "N D", the author (whom I should have known, from the 1st post) prefers to keep his file(s) on his own site. Again, I am assuming that some files are maintained in the Paint.Net archives, as the link appears in a different format from the links where the author directs you to their own site. Let's put this to rest, as I doubt we will hear from N D, who hasn't posted since 2010. Thanks again..... DeeJay

Jim, for what it's worth, the function in 7-Zip to test the integrity of a zip file says "Data error in 'edgemaster'. File is broken". I don't know whether you uploaded the already zipped file to Fileden, or used a function on their site to zip the file, but I'll check back from time to time to see if the prob has been fixed. Thanks for responding so quickly. deejay

The link works fine, and I was able to download "edgemaster.zip", but the content(s) is not a .dll or other file that Paint.Net recognizes. I was able to open "edgemaster" (no file extension) in an editor, and I can see what looks like the beginning of a "pkzip" and the characters "edgemaster.dll". Tried renaming that file to edgemaster.dll (not recognized in Paint.net), and tryed unzipping the file after renaming it edgemaster.zip (would not unzip). May I suggest re-posting the .zip file after insuring the .dll is the only file? Thanks.
