Midgetalien Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Hey there, I ahve been trying out a few tutorials and one of the pictures i made would look great with a lense flare. Is this possible in Paint.net? I know photoshop has a lense flare feature, but we all know paint.net is better than PS. =MA= Quote My Gallery|MyDeviantart|My Earth Texture Tutorial|Paint.net Chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APShredder Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Well there is a Lens Flare plugin, but I can't seem to find it anymore. I'll let you know if I find it though. Quote BlendModes Plus | Dissolve | Extract Color Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flip Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 You can try using zoom blur deluxe. It can make explosion like things, and if used right it might be able to make lens flares. Quote Gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what in did with your planet tutorial , I was wondering if using a lense flare would be better ( you can see the picture in my gallery or your 100%PDN planet thread tut) Quote My Gallery|MyDeviantart|My Earth Texture Tutorial|Paint.net Chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Onemorelevel Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 I made one, you can see it in my gallery. Mini-tutorial. Make a ellipse selection, wherever you want to, but make sure you hold down shift. Use outline selection, search it, you'll find it, its a plugin. With white/grey at about 10 or 7. Guassian blur the selection, make sure its still selected. Deselect, Ctrl-D, then use feather, or an other guassian blur at 1 or 2 px. Adjust layer opacity. Add new layer, repeat, with different size, different transparency, and different blurs. You'll work something out Honestly, the lensflare wont do nearly as good as this.

LFC4EVER Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 You could create a lens flare in PDN; it'd be quite difficult though. imo, the plugins available for a lens flare don't quite cut it yet. Just take a look here and try and create some of them in PDN if you're up for a challenge. Or you can just use 'em. Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::.
