Thanks man! I'll pick one out later, I've got to do some stuff right now. That Deser Scorpion looks amazing though. Good job on them!

1. In the "Tools" window, select the "Rectangle Select" tool. It looks like a light blue square with a dotted border. 2. Using that tool, draw a rectangle on the screen. 3. In the "Tools" window again, select the "Gradient" tool. Go over to the rectangle you just drew and click and drag to add the gradient to the rectangle. 4. You can now play with the colors and the transparency of the gradient. Here is a tutorial that put me in the right direction. Paint.NET Help - Gradient Tool This page was also handy... Transparent glass ball and magic sphere - Paint.NET Forum For the ones I made, I used a linear gradient from dark gray to maroon and a transparency from 10% to 100%. Hope that help ya |

Sorry, I had to try it myself because it is different from what I'm used to. Here is how I figured out how to do it...
1. In the "Tools" window, select the "Rectangle Select" tool. It looks like a light blue square with a dotted border. 2. Using that tool, draw a rectangle on the screen. 3. In the "Tools" window again, select the "Gradient" tool. Go over to the rectangle you just drew and click and drag to add the gradient to the rectangle. 4.

Hope that help ya Yes, that does help and makes sense. I did figure out the rectangle, lol, then I said screw it and asked you. God damn dude, do you do graphic design or something? Sounds like you figured all that stuff out in, like, 1.5 minutes! |

I do a little when I have to. I'm a web developer and create a lot of sites at work and for personal use, so I picked up a few skills to get by. We were without a graphics guy for a long time, and of course I'm not going to hire someone for my own personal stuff
The problem is after about 30 minutes of working graphics, my head hurts. Glad I don't do it for a living, but have a lot of respect for the guys who do. There are some amazing artists here on the tank. |
