[xcalibur0645]

How do I convert paint.net photos to .jpg files?

[DualxWieldxMedia]

@xcalibur0645 Open up paint.net>open picture>file>save-as>select save-as-type>.jpeg

[Justinzac100]

@xcalibur0645 when you save the file the program asks you to write a name, the name is set to "untitled.pdn" as default and right under it is an option that says "save file as",select "JPG" n thats it :)

[kilikolo56]

why are you talking like that are you ill or somethin

[Pompsilinko]

Accidentaly crossed out of the colours chooser thingy how do I get it back I have tryed everything! >:(

Please help!

[Barrack125]

nice tutorial :)

[TTproductz]

if i do 'layer down' it just doesnt color, then the colour of my pencil is just white!! PLZ! i beg u! help meee!

[Justinzac100]

@TTproductz i had the same problem,look you have to arrange your layers as you want ,the thing you want in the back ground should be in the lowest layer

[Justinzac100]

@Justinzac100 you can move that layer down,try doin it,n you'll understand :)

[MalevolentBrutalisk]

Gimp vs Paint? Which is better ?.?

[slimharri2000]

@MalevolentBrutalisk paint....i think

[lucymydog1995]

@MalevolentBrutalisk i think paint is simpler and easier to use but i haven't used gimp in a while so idk

[SpamHackerzX]

Paint.net fucking sucks, when i try to use paint bucket everything becomes that colour! FIX IT MOTHER FUCKERS!

[Bittersweetlove50]

@SpamHackerzX It's not the program's fault for that [most of the time], when you use the paint bucket, you have to make sure the whole space is "closed" if you drew something. For example, if you were to make a triangle, but you didn't connect the points, the color would "leak out". It also depends on your settings.

[killererkul]

Pedo?

[GANGSTAR278]

Let's put it a little dip in it.. haha 0.57

[Neopinky46]

I use regular paint that came with my computer, it seems a LOT easier than paint net, regular paint doesnt use fancy layers, but i guess those can be helpful sometimes.....

[BigAmond]

@Neopinky46 u have to download paint.net

[u320017]

aah i hate programms that i have to use layers

[MathewAlden]

If you don't have those keys... could you use GlovePie to simulate them with other keys???

Really appreciate this. I'm still trying to understand the basics of Photoshop at my job so when I got a tablet and saw that layers were different in PAINT.net from what I remember, I felt a bit upset.

How do u fill in an area with a picture?

i have a template of a swimsuit and i want to fill it in with this picture of a pattern and im having trouble. im new to all this.

[collllllllsizzle]

ZOMG THAT GUY IS A HAPPY PICCOLO

[PockyPuppetMaster]

And actually, another way to color something so that the color is underneath the line art, is [if you choose to] you can use the Background Layer. It's just a tip obviously, but it's something I did the first time I figured out how to use layers. But other than that, this is a very Tutorial.
