I can't see the image because my workplace blocks image hosting services, but it's spelled laser... Go to http://searchpaint.net and look for "Laser". Does that help?

EDIT: Actually, it appears there isn't any tutorial with that title, either. Try "Lightsaber."

 

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.

I'd just ask Maxim Dude for a PNG of the laser, and then clone stamp it or just use that lazer.

And if your wondering who Maxim Dude is, he's a member of the NM forums, along with chris here.

Edit: is this what you wanted

Hmmm, look nice. I do know he has the .PSD of the laser of the guy who done it, but I'll inform him about it.

.... ill just wait foor the guy to make a tutorial :lol:

I don't mean for this to sound rude nor for it to make the decision for you, but you could try experimenting with the effects listed by Andrew D first instead of waiting for someone to tell you how to create it. There are advantages to trying it yourself with no guidelines, for example, you will have complete control over how the laser will look - colour, width, etc. - without been swayed by how the instructor has arranged it in their tutorial, it will give you experience with Paint.NET whether your attempt follows through or not, and you'll feel more satisfied with the final product if it does work and it was completely your work.

Try it out first, then if you fall flat on your face refer to the help which, with luck, may come soon.

sorry about the wait

ok, mini tut:

You need twistz and zoom blur deluxe and dents

1.) linear, reflected gradient (this is the base of the laser.) has to be horizontal you can rotate it later.

2.)Use dents default size but stretch it.

3.)use zoom blur deluxe placing the axes at the start of the laser use high quality. A relatively high amount

If you don't want twists and just the outer glow go to the Outer Glow section.

Optional for twistz:

4.)For the twistz duplicate the layer name it 2 select where you would like the twist and invert selection (ctrl I) and delete the rest.

5.) Duplicate the layer, select the deleted area and invert the selection use a twistz of 12 amount and 5 quality.

6.) On layer "2", do the same only instead of 12 amount use -12 amount.

7.) Using blending modes switch it to lighten and merge the top two layers together.

8.) Use transparency gradient radial to help blend it and flatten. One more zoom blur deluxe with a lower amount should do it.

Outer Glow

use curves at the coordinates on the file.
