Paint.NET for IMVU create - Master With Your Application Part I

Since I wrote about how to install Paint.NET application and plugins for Koniechy, I just think that I should share some introduction about this application. The truth about Paint.NET was originated from Microsoft paint. You can read the history from the page you download the application. 

I edited this logo edited using Paint.NET

What I like and fall in love this application are the feature and the user interface element is learn-able and easy to understand. Is like you using paint with extra-ordinary tools... hehehe... 

Previously, long long time ago I did learned about basic about PS during my ICT course. My brother himself is a graphic designer and my auntie from 'zero to hero' also very good using PS. Except me, because rarely using it and forgot how to play with a tools. I had difficulty to polish back my knowledge. My friend advise me try using Gimp, I did install the application but ... still having difficult to play with the tools. I'm using Photoscape application to edit image and photo but I realize if I want to create for my imvu product I still need an application like PS or Gimp or Coral Draw. 

I found Paint.NET application from download.cnet.com. I downloaded because its look simple and advance to the Microsoft Paint application. If you notice the tools window look alike existence Paint application in our Window. 

can you compare tools between both application?

May be the fact that its similar to the Paint application in Microsoft Window, makes me easy to play with the tools. I started to add plugin after read online forum, I remember that time I'm searching if anyone using this application for IMVU create. I thought I'd found a well known 3D product developer sharing tutorial how to make fur. Yeah... I'd refer his tutorial to make a hair texture!

I said its like using Paint application with extra ordinary tools. Yes! because its multiple layer exactly similar to other photo and image editing application such as PS or Gimp. Canvas background as a base and you can add image to a new layer without effecting the original canvas. 

my project I still keep and save in my storage

You can learn more from Paint.NET Documentation about the features.  

I learn to use the plugin from the tutorials and tips shared in online forum. I added plugin based on the tutorial that I would like to try to do an experiment.
