nashvegas Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I'll try this again since the last post got locked.. Okay, i've been using paint for a few weeks now, espcially the last week or so creating a book cover for my moms book. Now the question I have, everywhere I look and try on the program, I can't find a simple way to rotate the text for the spine of the book. I want the text rotated where its up and down vertical (the image is book cover, spine and back cover as 1 image), but everytime I try, the entire image gets flipped. I just want the text flipped. How do you do this?? its driving me crazy trying to find a answer to such a easy task. Also, how do you soften the paintbrush tool? When using it, its solid and the options I have are nothing for making it soft. I need to use a paintspray effect but a soft look. Any suggestions would be very helpful!! Thank you!

barkbark00 Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Search for "soft brush"... Search for "rotate text"... The point is, these questions have been asked and addressed many times.

nashvegas Posted January 12, 2008 Author Share Posted January 12, 2008 Well, my point now is.. you all are as useless as this program is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timjones Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Try puting the text on a separate layer, and then: Selecting around the text, and hold the right mouse button to rotate the image. Also click on Layers --> Flip Horizontal/Vertical Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wither Posted January 12, 2008 Share Posted January 12, 2008 Does this make Paint.NET less useless to you? viewtopic.php?f=15&t=22096 Write your text on a new layer to rotate it. Simple as that. Well, my point now is.. you all are as useless as this program is Thanks for the vote of confidence. I'm glad you approve.

nashvegas Posted January 12, 2008 Author Share Posted January 12, 2008 Thank you! see it wasn't so hard now was it?? I told you I had just started using it AND I did try searching it up. I wouldn't post unless I did that first anyways. I'm not a total newb, but with this program I am. Thank you again, I appreciate it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
