aparramoure Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Good morning to you all once again. I have found myself trying to capture a logo that is round and copy it in order to paste it into another circle . (thus it has to be round , not rectangle or square) The closest I have come was to use the Ellipe Select tool and "poke and hope".. but did finally get pretty much what I wanted. My question is,, is there a better way? Thanks in advance.. Art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Use the Ellipse Select tool with Shift key down. After making the circular selection, it can be repositioned using the Move Selection tool. It can be re-sized using the Move Selection tool on a corner adjusting nub with the Shift key down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aparramoure Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Thank you.. that is what I want to do.. Now.. how do I make it a watermark? Yesterday,, I used the ellipe tool and F4 and mulitply and was able to fade just the logo.. I just did what was explained above with holding down the shift key,, I copied to another page in Paint.net, but when I tried to make it a watermark,, the whole page started to turn to checkerboard??????? What did I do right yesterday and wrong now? TIA Art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarkut Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 Did you paste into a new layer above the other page? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aparramoure Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 Thanks,, the key was the "new layer" . However, I don't recall doing a new layer when I happened to do it the first time???
