This is also the third time this week you have not followed the forum rules. On two separate occasions, Pixey and I both asked you to read and follow them.

There are reasons behind every one of those rules. You need to follow them.

You may also want to try out the G'mic plugin. It has a cartoon filter among many others..

Oh my goodness me, I'm so sorry!

I've been doing abstract art with Paint.net for around five years, and in that time I've found many different styles that I would cling to for a while. About four years ago I started using Ownage's Toon filter plugin posted in 2006 (https://forums.getpaint.net/topic/1671-toon-filter/), and I liked it mainly because of a method I found on the forums to create a nice cracked-surface effect. I'm not sure when exactly, but at some point a few years ago, the Toon filter disappeared from my effects list. I initially hadn't tried much except for making sure the .dll was still in my effects folder, which it was. I recently tried again by just re-downloading the plugin, but still no luck. It wasn't until tonight that I really sat down and tried to figure it out. I opened the .dll using 7Zip, and compared the files with those of effects I knew still worked, and still wasn't able to make it available. I'll now concede that I lack the knowledge required to fix it. So I scoured the forums trying to see if anyone else has had a similar issue, and when that didn't pan out, checked to see if Ownage might be available to ask about it. Seeing that they haven't visited since 2006, I decided to set up an account here (take a look through the forum rules so I don't mess this post up) and ask all you fine folk if you've experienced something like this, and if so, your possible solutions. I've included the first piece I made using the effect (resized to fit forum requirements).

It is not showing up for me either, and it is not appearing in plugin errors.

I will try rebuilding it from the source code, the DLL may be incompatible with the latest versions of Paint.NET.

 

Also,  this should have been posted in the plugin thread.

Perhaps one of the mods will move it there for you.

I recompiled the effect from the source code in the first post.

Changes:

• Moved it into the Artistic submenu
• Added a Plugin Browser preview image (I cropped the example image in the first post)

I was going to move it into Stylize, but Artistic is a better fit.

That's the one I have/had.

 

@null54 Thanks for updating the filter. I'll replace the file in the first post, unless you want to create a new thread?

I do not think that there is any point in creating a new thread.

 

I did not make any changes to the plugin's algorithm.

I only changed the menu category and added a Plugin Browser preview image.

It looks like CodeLab is not embedding the preview image into the DLL, it also does not add it to the generated VS project.

I just looked at that code the other day, and know exactly where the bug is. Fixing...

[Ego Eram Reputo]

Add DLL to first post. I've cunningly hidden it behind a large blue download button.
