Strickalator Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 I need to be able to create this look of text and other multi color/blended texts within paint.net what are some ways I can go about making an image looking like this: I made that a long while ago with windows/microsoft office using the word art ability...i no longer have office. Will this work or do i need anothert program in addition to paint.net? Quote Shawn Edward Strickland "The Strickalator" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david.atwell Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 uh you posted this same topic :? , about five times, do you realize that? :?: QFT. You should delete all of your other threads. As for the answer, check out the Gradient Mapping Plugin by Pyrochild or the Gradient Plugin by BoltBait. :-) Hope this helps! Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

david.atwell Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Gradient Mapping is in the Adjustments menu. See my tutorial on gradient mapping - it's linked on the first page of Pyro's Gradient Mapping thread. Quote The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior...

Ash Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Much much easier when using Conditional Hue/Saturation Effect plugin. Quote All creations Ash + Paint.NET [ Googlepage | deviantArt | Club PDN | PDN Fan ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ash Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Type your text in ..lets say red. Then use the plugin. Use fade (horizontal) Done Quote All creations Ash + Paint.NET [ Googlepage | deviantArt | Club PDN | PDN Fan ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Frojo Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 You can also try using Boltbaits and Illnabs gradient plugin. Select the letters you want, then select the same color for the primary and secondary colors (It cannot be black, white, or gray. Also, if you click on the more button on the colors window on the bottom right, Under RGB, you want one of those values to be at or around 255.) Then, use the gradient plugin and check the bubble that says HSV long. That will create a rainbow effect. Quote I'm still alive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
