    So, my question is - can I install Paint as a plugin for it or should I save a photocollage separately and then upload it to Paint to insert my text?
    Thank you for the help in advance.

     

    No, Paint.NET is a stand alone application.  You can save your picture you have done in Luminar and add a text, using the Text Tool, or whatever you desire in Paint.NET.

    Excellent, TrevorOutlaw. I'm glad that issue has resolved itself. I bet it was when I rewrote the maximizing code so that it remained in a windowed mode instead of actually being maximized.

     

    I am still waiting for the ability to use the plug-in for masking.

    Here is the image I am trying to edit:

    Here is the red line I mentioned in my first post showing the point past which I want the image to be totally transparent:

    Here is what happens when I use the gradient tool and it actually works (as opposed to doing nothing):

    All the parts that are white I want to be grades of transparency, down to full transparency. 

     

    Hello, I remembered a tutorial written by Rick Brewster, and after hunting around in the Tutorials subforums, I found the tutorial.  It gives you the basic idea of manipulating the image by using gradient transparency blending.  https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/12184-fading-blending-gradient-tool-on-a-camaro-picture/

    The new image is very Splinter Cell meets early Metal Gear Solid.

    Nice job mate

     

    Never thought about it that way.  I was thinking The Matrix type, but I can see where you would see Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid.

    Nice new style you've adopted mate ... very advertising (can't think of the word I want to use) orientated .

    Would love to see that cut out face in a larger image ... maybe because it reminds me of me so much 

     

    Is that a confession?  :P

     

    NEW image on page 1.  Enjoy.

  6. I saw your comment in the Brush Factory thread.

     

    What I have been doing is making a total of four layer - the original picture to have its edge "erased", a duplicate of the original image and liquidized, a white with black paint "splatter" layer, and a black with white "splatter layer."

     

    The ability to copy the images and paste it in the Brush Factory's canvas is a huge benefit.  I can access the converted ABR brush from Brush Factory, paint on the edge to "erase", and then bucket fill that layer with white, copy that layer, go to the original image layer, and run alpha mask plug in.  It's a lot of work, but worth the effort.  The Brush Factory, in my honest opinion, is what Simon Brown's CustomBrushMini should have been.

  7. Simon Brown once created a plug in called AlphaMask Brush, which is no longer supported by him.  Having downloaded it and gave it a whirl, I feel that plug-in has a great deal of potential, but the lack of access to custom brush cripples its potential.

     

    The arrival of the Brush Factory gave me reason to believe it is possible to create a plug in where a user, having access to custom brush generated from Photoshop's ABR file, can create special effect like qiTxo9F.png.

     

    The only way I have been able to create this is using Brush Factory and alpha masking.  Would this be doable?

     

    I think having a layer mask brush plug-in would unleash PDN's potential.

  8. " Have you got any monitor managers installed?"

     

    I am using a HDMI connection.  Like I said earlier, I can use pyrochild's plug-in within the extended monitor and pretty much every other plug-ins.  TechnoRobb's Dodge and Burn plug-in also stays stuck in the main monitor and not move to the extended monitor.

  9. Great plug-in. This is what I had been hoping for.

     

    However, I have an interesting problem that I need to bring to your attention.

     

    I am using a HP laptop with a HDMI, extended monitor.  I have PDN on the extended monitor, but the plug-in window only stays on the laptop's monitor.  When I use, pyrochild's smudge plugin, it opens in the extended monitor.  Trying to move the brush factory window to the extended monitor isn't working.
