  1. Thanks for the comment and visit Drew. Updated my gallery with my first new one for a while due to a HD crash and losing all my pdn plugins and of course the program too. Finally downloaded all that I had before, so i hope to update more frequently, I still have a few tutes to catch up on too, but I will get there :)

  2. @Sasha - I made a tutorial here to get one started with this fun plugin.  As for the more intricate animations, what I did was open Midora's PDN file in paint.net and study his layers and times.  Yes, they are complex, but one then gets a general idea of how it works with the layers and also with the Sprites.

    Thank you Pixey, for some reason I missed that tutorial, I will have to try my hand at it :)

     

    @ Sasha, Pixey made a great tutorial and that is were you may want to start. Animation is just like video, it's just a series of still images with a specified duration. I may create a Tutorial, but it will use multiple tools and may not be for everybody.

     

    @ Midora, I figured out how to use ffmpeg's palette gen + bayer dither to save to PNG image sequence @ 256 colors. Then it's a simple process of loading the PNGs into Paint.net and apply settings as needed with dither disabled. It works well for reducing banding on gradient backgrounds like this 224 color example I submitted in the sig contest.

    I can post the script if you'd like.

    Thank you racerx for your help too :) Nice picture btw.

    Tutorials with images yes.

    Dedicates pdfs I don't know.

    But there is a print button at the bottom of the forum pages and you may print to a PDF printer (like PDFCreator) to create a basic PDF.

    If you like to create one of these photo realistic animations then maybe racerx will create a tutorial. These are out of my scope.

    Thanks Midora for your answer and help also :)
