Xtreme2damax Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Since I don't have Photoshop, seeing as I can't afford it, I have to use Paint.net... I'm trying to follow this tutorial: http://adobeperson.com/photoshop-websit ... ite-banner I wanted to use this as a basic template for my website banner/logo, however there is a key tool missing to achieve this. That tool is the full featured blending option of Photoshop that Paint.net lacks. I haven't been able to find a suitable plugin for Paint.net either to achieve this effect.. I've tried two different gradient plugins, and a limited in comparison blending plugin that lacks the full featured options that photoshop has. Would anyone know of a plugin for paint.net to achive the exact effects of the blending tool in photoshop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ouchy_S Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 The link doesn't work, so you are going to have to find it or we can't help you. And you can always download a Photoshop trial, and make your banner, too. Quote My deviantART | My Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreme2damax Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 I fixed the link, something happened when I submitted my post... Also the Photoshop trial is too large for me to download on my current connection (Satellite). In the tutorial I linked to, in order to create those effects I need a blending tool or a full featured blending tool/option as shown in the Photoshop diagrams. I've been unable to locate a plugin for Paint.Net that can handle this, and create these effects. I came here to seek a solution, if there is no plugin to accomplish this, maybe there might be another way to achieve those effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Brown Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 You can change the blend-mode and the opacity by double-clicking on the layer. You can change the structure gradient with the gradient tool in transitional mode. You can change an angle by right-clicking on the canvas and dragging.

You get to use Paint.NET. :wink: Which part are you stuck on, or have you even started yet?

Xtreme2damax Posted February 7, 2009 Author Share Posted February 7, 2009 I'm stuck on the 5th step all the way to the end, I can't seem to find a way to create the effects shown in that tutorial on Paint.net.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemaru Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Got it. I'll try it out myself right now, I'll make you a mini-tut (or a big tutorial) soon.
