Everything from blurring, sharpening, red-eye removal, distortion, noise, and embossing are included. Many special effects are included for enhancing and perfecting your images. You may think of them as a stack of transparency slides that, when viewed together at the same time, form one image. Usually only found on expensive or complicated professional software, layers form the basis for a rich image composition experience. This makes navigation very simple and fast. The tabs display a live thumbnail of the image instead of a text description. In order to handle multiple images easily, Paint.NET uses a tabbed document interface. Every feature and user interface element was designed to be immediately intuitive and quickly learnable without assistance. It is not my place to second-guess your is an image and photo manipulation application. I only say this to forward the feedback I received.

Personally, I do often use the JPEG noise removal plugin, and frequently forget whether it’s in Photo, Blur or Noise. I feel that improvements to the plugin organization, or any kind of quick search, would speed the workflow significantly more up than any further performance improvements (it’s already really fast). That’s especially true if you don’t use English, because people have duplicate folders (like English and Spanish names). I have recommended PDN to a great number of people over the years, and they love it because of its ease-of-use and the many plugins, but a frequent complaint is that you forget where a certain effect is located. I see you have made fundamental changes to the plugin system.Ĭould you change the way plugins are organized to allow users to simply put dlls into their own subfolders? Like there are actual subfolders in the Effects folder on your disk, and the hierarchy in PDN reflects that? While I can only congratulate you for such a major effort, there’s something that continues to bother me.
