Simon Brown Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 Here is a checklist to go through if you are having trouble installing the plugin: [*:2x229ggx]Did you unzip the file?[*:2x229ggx]Did you look for it in every sub-menu?[*:2x229ggx]Did you put it in Paint.NET/Effects?[*:2x229ggx]Is it a FileType? If so, did you put it in the FileTypes folder?[*:2x229ggx]Do you have Paint.NET installed in a different location?[*:2x229ggx]Are you running a beta version of Paint.NET? If so, are you sure the plugin is compatible?[*:2x229ggx]Was the plugin written for an old version of Paint.NET? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curmudgeon Posted March 21, 2008 Share Posted March 21, 2008 If you can, post a screenshot of your "c:\Program Files\Paint.NET\Effects" folder. It would be easy to help if we saw that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
