PAINT.NET tutorial! (BTW I todally gots paint.net first! I DID O.O)


Well, Obviously you need to have paint.net to do these so just go onto PAINT.NET and figure it out. trust me it only takes like five minutes if you pay attention to where you are. Also, if you have any questions just Private Message me, or just Post on this board.

Ok, here's just a simple link to download PAINT.NET just click on Paint.NET v3.35 and either press open or save, I forget. And BAM you've just downladed paint.net! So click on the link!
http://www.dotpdn.com/downloads/pdn.html

Tutorial One: Swirly backgrounds!

1. Open up paint.net

2. Click on file, then click on new

3. Set the width to 500 and the hight to 250. Leave the rest alone and click OK

4. Now you should see a colors palet open somewhere click on one of the colors you want in your signature.

5. Now Stay on the colors palet and switch it from primary to secondary and click on the second color that you want on your signature.

6.Now in the upper left hand corner of the window click on the arrow pointing down that is next to the word TOOLS

7. click on the word gradient.

8. now on the upper left hand corner of your signature click and hold, then begin to expand to the lower right hand corner. Stop whe nyou like how it looks.

9. now click on effects (Its on the top), then scroll over distort and click on TWIST.

10. Now you can choose the size you want your twist to be but for this tutorial Well set the amount/direction to about 42.46 and the size to 1.30. leave the center alone and set the quality to 3. now press OK

11.You can stop here if you want your background to be just a twist but if you want it to be really awesome, keep going!

12. We are going to click on effects again, and scroll over distort, but this time click on the words POLAR INVERSION. Sweet huh?

13. Now set the amount to 1.00, the offset to 0.00 (Both offsets) the edge behavior to wrap and the quality to 2. if you want you can change it up by yourself if you want something different. now click OK and you have your swirly background.

14. If you want to add more you can copy a picture that you want on your sig, press edit, paste into new layer, select the eraser and erase around it. you can also add text and play around with paint.net thatswhat I did and I figured out a ton of stuff on my own! You can also! Oh, right. And don't forget to save!

15. If you want to use the sig you just made on this site or you want to upload it onto the internet (This is only if you want to upload it on tinypic.com) you need to go to the layers palet which should be open and click on the button in the middle until all the layers are merged together.

16. then click on edit, then select all. and then click on Edit then click on copy.

17. now open a regular PAINT (Not PAINT.NET) document. press edit paste and resize the document so it fits your sig. press file save and upload your sig on tinypic.com!
