ScrapbookWithPDN Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 At Wikipedia they have information explaining what Digital Scrapbooking is. They give examples of typically used software and even included a free software, which I gave up on because PDN was less frustrating for me to quickly get the hang of. I guess I'm a little puzzeled that PDN was not added to the Wikipedia list of software available as a good option for Digital Scrapbooking. It should be. It's easy to use for digital scrapbooking purposes. In fact, I have no idea why others haven't been sharing its awesomeness within the digital scrapbooking community, which is a very large mass of people around the world. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_scrapbooking Shouldn't PDN rightfully be included in that listing of "Digital Scrapbook Software" on that Wikipedia explanation of Digital Scrapbooking? On the other hand, maybe I'm missing something and there are reasons for it, but I have been using PDN to do digital scrapbooking and eventually began using PDN entirely. (YEAH!! I made a shorter post to read!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 So what's stopping you from adding paint.net onto that Wikipedia article?

toe_head2001 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Thank you! Now it's right. Well, technically, paint.net isn't free; it's freeware.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 I placed the word free in there to catch people as they work along the options. Expensive, expensive, oh wait - free? I'll take it! "Free" is used extensively on the official website http://www.getpaint.net/index.html http://www.getpaint.net/license.html http://www.getpaint.net/donate.html And we've come to know it as "the BEST free image and photo editing application for Windows based PCs" http://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/ Quote ebook: Mastering Paint.NET | resources: Plugin Index | Stereogram Tut | proud supporter of Codelab plugins: EER's Plugin Pack | Planetoid | StickMan | WhichSymbol+ | Dr Scott's Markup Renderer | CSV Filetype | dwarf horde plugins: Plugin Browser | ShapeMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toe_head2001 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) "Free" is used extensively on the official website I'm guessing most of that simply carried over from when paint.net was actually free software (MIT License). The license page does clarify that "free" in this context is limited to no cost, the freedom of redistribution, and the freedom to run the program. But sure, the average Joe on the internet won't know the difference freeware and free software, so no not a big deal.

Maximilian Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 As it came to pass, it seemed a fine evening for personal growth on Max's computer, and thus he went on to edit the Spanish Wikipedia article on digital scrapbooking as well (let's consider that Max's first language is Spanish and that's how all of this started ) And follows proof that it was Max's edition, the rank of captain being self-appointed (sorry for that ) As a side comment, this was a good opportunity and excuse to make my first Wikipedia edition ever! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.atwell Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Heads-up from a formerly serious Wikipedian: Be careful editing an article about a topic you're closely associated with. Don't want to be accused of bias. :-) Not that I'm accusing any of you of that. Just a heads-up. 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...

Maximilian Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I've never been closely associated with scrapbooking either, not yet at least, but thanks anyway for the heads-up, David. I'll keep it in mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
