Ego Eram Reputo Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 Don't keep us waiting... ... in what way does it not work? Is there an error or something?

Amaroq Dricaldari Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) And the problem happened again, this time when I tried to open a .PSD It seems that the problem only occurs whenever I try to open a Plug-In filetype, but I can still save in those filetypes just fine. System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'PaintDotNet.Threading.PrivateThreadPool' from assembly 'PaintDotNet.Core, Version=4.12.6099.39434, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'. at PaintDotNet.Data.PhotoshopFileType.PsdLoad.Load(Stream input) at PaintDotNet.FileType.Load(Stream input) in D:\src\pdn\src\Data\FileType.cs:line 496 at PaintDotNet.Functional.Func.Eval[T1,TRet](Func`2 f, T1 arg1) in D:\src\pdn\src\Base\Functional\Func.cs:line 158 As it stands, I still have no idea if it's just a problem on my end (messed up installations), or if it's a problem with the newest version of Paint.NET.

msangel Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 This plugin is good, but I it has missed two important things. First one - AGIF not supporting transparency. And second - during saving I cannot select 24 bit or 8bit GIF image I want to save. It defaults to 8bit, even if the source is 24bit. See example source file in attachment. ws_loader.agif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoosSkywalker Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 On 2-7-2009 at 9:41 PM, Simon Brown said: Animated GIFs actually have the same extension as normal ones. However, as PDN can already open normal GIFs, if I assign my extension to .gif you won't be able to use it as Paint.NET's native handler would take preference. So I use .agif instead and to get it to work you must rename .gif files to .agif before opening, and .agif files to .gif after saving. This is extremely clear and helpful. Would you mind adding this bit of info to the first post? It should save many future questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoubleD Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 I tried and tried to get a transparent background but its a no go - there's always a white block around my gif. I tried the Midora plugin and it kind of screws up my gif. I used PDN to edit another animated GIF and I removed some of the image. Midora's plugin brings the image back and adds flashing colors - IDK Let me re-read this tread and maybe something will make sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a cheesy GIF that I wanted to make the background transparent. I used an old plugin (AnimatedGifLibrary.dll) to create the GIF Its OK but background is not transparent I tried many plugins but I can't get it to go. I misspoke about Midora (tried so many I lost track) but it does not make the background transparent & it doesn't work like the one above Here's the actual paint.net file renamed it .dll cuz .png not allowed My_Cloud_Base_logo - Copy.pdn.dll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleD Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Hmmm When I click on the second file (from Midora) it shows a transparent background - Needs to be cleaned up but when I drag the file to my browser it's background is not transparent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Hello @DoubleD. Your layers are different from the original. This is how they should be placed: 1st frame is blank - i.e only the clouds 2nd frame - M 3rd frame - y 4th frame - blank - only the clouds 5th frame - C 6th frame - l 7th frame - o 8th frame - u 9th frame - d then: 10th, 11th, 12 & 13th are all - My Cloud This is how they must be spaced for the speed to look correct. Hope this helps Quote 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.

Hope this helps I will try that but honestly I think it will be easier & look cleaner to just change the background color of each layer to be the same as my web page background. It will seem as if it were transparent I wonder why it worked for the other plugin ??? Thanks for your reply Edited October 20, 2017 by DoubleD I wonder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixey Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Have you seen this tutorial: I'm not sure what you mean about 'transparent'. Do you mean you don't want the blue clouds? If not, then just make your first layer the color of your website.

Transparent so I put this icon on a web page with a black background. It shows up with a white box around it. I want the white to be transparent. The Midora plugin gets me close but here's where I noticed that it needs to be cleaned up. too much white around the gears and chain. I could just change the web page's background to white and its all good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsy Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I remember one person wanted a gif with a transparent background. The verdict was if you have Firefox it is possible. If you have Internet Explorer it is not. In your case you should probably make the background the same color as your web page. That way it looks transparent.

Pixey Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I think the problem is that you are using the original frames? I assumed you were making your own logo on a transparent background. If you are using the original, the reason the white is there is because they make it with a white background. If you are, in essence, using the original, you need to use magic wand and delete the white background and then you have a transparent background.

This is where I noticed that I need to do cleanup work and reorder as you suggested. still when I view it in firefox it shows as but if I click the image after i post it to this forum the white background is gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dipstick Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Transparency is not very clean. Your best bet is to set background color to black or whatever your web page background is. To do that, create a new layer below all layers and fill with black. Change that layer properties name to: layer0 // background Export to animated gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
