honeyrose Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) Hi again I downloaded Boltbaits latest plug-ins into Paint/Effects on my Program files but I can't get them to work. When I try to use one of these it first of all asks what application to use to open it so I say Paint and then I get an error message "This is not a valid bitmap file or its format is not currently supported". (And yes I did unzip them). Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong? Edited April 7, 2010 by honeyrose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 might be easy to diagnose if you can post a screenshot of your effects folder here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 (edited) To use the plugins, after installing in the Effects folder, open Paint.NET and click on Effects in the top menu. (Don't try to open the plugin .dll files themselves.) If Paint.NET was open when you installed the plugin files, close and re-open it. Threshold would be found this way: Effects > Color > Threshold ===================================== Feather Object: Effects > Object > Feather...
