doverdemon77 Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) This is basically a tint plugin, but can be used to get a, uh, different tints of pixels in a stencil. I used CodeLab Suggestions on using CodeLab/C# 01. Watch the capitalization with code: Like if you put an "IF", you'll get a weird error in CodeLab about there not being a ";", but really it's just supposed to be an "if" Anywayz, this plugin does: 01. Takes color in Primary Color of Toolbar 02. Looks at the V levels of the selection 03. Changes the Saturation of the Primary Color based on those levels. 04. Replaces all pixels with such colors. 05. Keeps transparency/alpha levels the same. So, you basically get a tinted version. Probably could be done some other way (or with other plugins), but I had some time to kick around today anyway. HINTS: 01. Use red, blue, etc...doesn't work well with black or anything around that. 02. Do a Black & White conversion first 03. Slider: Saturation Lower Limit can apply less/more tint. 04. Slider: Tint Offset applies more/less tint. Source code is in the zip. Stencil2Eye.zip Here's version 2. It's completely different, but the same basic idea of making a stencil. 01. You put a color as a Primary Color in Paint.net 02. This plugin picks up each bitmap square and replaces it with that Primary Color. 03. There's also an Alpha slider so if you want to keep some alpha shading around a graphic, just set it High (255). 04. More explained below...

Ego Eram Reputo Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 HINTS: 01. Use red, blue, etc...doesn't work well with black or anything around that. Ain't that the truth! Once you select a different hue as the primary colors the plugin works it's magic.

david.atwell Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Some screenshots would be awesome. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.Amy: But how did it end up in there?The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doverdemon77 Posted November 6, 2013 Author Share Posted November 6, 2013 Here's some screenshots of Stencil2Eye 02 as Stencil2Eye 01 was mainly just for dingbat fonts. Probably not helpfull for a beginner, but some people might find it useful, I'd write more detail, but wtf? Basis idea is to: 01. take an image 02. make a "stencil" of the image 03. Make a "stencil selection" using the stencil and magic wand. 04. Copy the original image using the stencil selection. 05. "Dip" the selected image in a color. 06. Change the look using the Layer Properties Mode 07. Copy "dipped" image BACK to original. 08. Paste over original so that alpha shadows can be used.
