Newbie in need of direction

Where to start?!

I thought I had died and gone to heaven when I found paint.net! (DH is going to hate it :twisted: )

So! Please, can some one tell me where to start? I need a serious plug-in fix...and probably a reminder of where to put them. :oops:

Years ago I started with PSP7 and slowly upgraded to PSP10 (9 was my fave)

Long story short. I had done SO much and saved so many files that PSP killed my computer. Totally fried it! ...Maybe it was more me than me than psp. I saw it coming though, I saved EVERYTHING related to psp, which is now useless. (I was a pspwhor*) :shock: - anyway..

I just got here (to the site) and I'm like a kid in a candy store! There is so much to read, learn, re-learn, snag, install, ... you get the picture.

Where should I start? Keep in mind that I'm not known for my patience ... and some what of a webtard. :oops: I need to do some brushing up, if that's possible.

... Any one ever go to the hospital and require morphine? ..This is my new morphine :twisted:

And no, I don't have a life.

This is a couple of my favorite creations on psp. (got addicted to digital scrapbooking) Can I achieve the same effects with paint.net?
