Eli Posted July 10, 2018 Posted July 10, 2018 Thanks @nitenurse79 for this tutorial. A great use of Auto Chrome effect. Here is my try: I first applied the Autochrome effect to an image. I gave it a little distortion with the Dents effect. Blurred it with the Surface Blur effect. Converted it to black and white. Added a new layer and covered it with the color brown. I changed its blending mode to Overlay. 3 1
lifeday Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 @nitenurse79 Flatten Image: I don't know what it is and how I can process or find it. I would be very grateful for a short tip. Thanks!
xod Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 (edited) Hi lifeday You can read some explanations here. It's about Photoshop, but things are pretty much the same in PDN. The command is Ctrl + Shift + F. https://www.quora.com/Adobe-Photoshop-What-is-the-difference-between-flatten-image-and-merge-layers Edited July 11, 2018 by xod 1
lifeday Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 @xod Dear xod, Flatten Image means in German - merge image (Ebenen zusammenführen) - so I couldn't even do anything with it, because I set Paint.Net to German. I would never have thought that this was about bringing the layers together. Thanks for your help! I hope that the translation is understandable.
Seerose Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 Dear @nitenurse79! Thank you for this tutorial. A few days already doesn't work out so well for me. Everything exactly as in the picture. Unfortunately, completely different result came out. Also plugins controlled, everything up-to-date. I don't know what to do anymore? Live as if you were to die tomorrow.

Seerose Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 Dear @lifeday! I have set my Paint.net in English. That way I'll be much better off. Please, just try it. If you don't get along, you can set it back to German. Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. Gandhi

If you don't get along, you can set it back to German. Dear @Seerose I used to work with the English Paint.net which made me completely horny after a while, because - I created a pdf book in German and of course I also explained the tools, bars and their tools and plugins in German and had to constantly switch between German and English. Sometimes when I can't find a term and the translation isn't really meaningful, I switch to English, which is a bit annoying because I have to close and reload Paint.net. I try around until I can explain the way in German. Same procedure when I return to the German language. And the term "Flatten Image" did not appear in the English paint.net , only " "layers". But it doesn't matter, because I like to learn and here I am challenged. And in an emergency, I just have to ask. Have a nice evening and greetings from HAM Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator
lifeday Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 Dear @xod, dear @Seerose The result so far has been unsatisfactory, so I have read the link from zot much more carefully. And I actually found a good description of merging flatten image and layers: - "Flatten image" merges ALL of the layers in the file. - "Merge layers' merges only the selected laters leaving the unselected layers in-tact. I can do something with that. Thank you dear zot for this good link!

I think, like @Eli, you will have to change a few things. It may be that @nitenurse79 used a different size canvas - but I'm not sure. Change some of the settings in the Auto Chrome. Like the Back color and color variation. I played with this and also, instead of using Surface Blur, I used Motion Blur.

nitenurse79 Posted July 11, 2018 Author Posted July 11, 2018 To all. I used the default 800x600 canvas and shrunk the screenshots down to forum regulation size for the purpose of this tutorial. I'm sorry that your not getting the desired results and sorry that some don't know what flattening an image means, if I had created this tute in my native language or made it multi lingual, then I'm sure it would have been locked or deleted. This is the first tutorial I have made since been a member on here and i have never seen any other beginer level tute torn apart by so many. In the future I will just stick to entering competitions, at least my entry there can't be hijacked or taken over. 1
Pixey Posted July 11, 2018 Posted July 11, 2018 @nitenurse79 I am so sorry you are upset and I certainly did not mean to tear your tutorial apart. I just could not get the same result as you, via the instructions. Perhaps it would be more constructive to find out why this is, as your final result is very impressive 1 How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

Sorry, translations are not always understandable for non-native speakers. Until today I couldn't do anything with the term "flattening". It's perfectly normal for me to ask questions when I don't understand something. And I'm happy about any answer that could help me. The purpose of a forum is to ask questions and receive answers. Answering my question helped me to understand what you meant by flattening and that makes me happy. Something learned again. I do not expect you to create a tutorial in languages other than english.

It seems everyone here has been courteous and the so-called 'hijacking' was only an attempt to reproduce the same results. Three people had trouble reproducing the same results, but nobody said you wrote a bad tutorial. 2 1
Eli Posted July 12, 2018 Posted July 12, 2018 Dear @nitenurse79, I love your tutorial. It is short and I learned how to add horizontal stripes/noise to an image. It was not my intention to overtake your tutorial and upset you by adding the Dents step, I just wanted to look like the polished moroocan wood texture "thuya". Thanks again for the time taken to create this tutorial and share it.
Seerose Posted July 13, 2018 Posted July 13, 2018 Dear @nitenurse79! Actually, you should ask yourself if none has shown your work. At a new tutorial some people show their results. If no one uploads something, then something is wrong. Thank you very much for your effort. Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever. Gandhi
