Changes and fixes since v3.5.2:

      * Fixed DirectDraw Surface (.dds) file format support for CPUs which do not have SSE2 (Pentium III, Athlon XP)
      * Fixed an issue with the File->Save dialog related to file type plugins that were only written for opening (importing).
      * Fixed some crashes which were supposed to be "out of memory" errors.
      * Fixed a race condition with the New Image, Canvas Size, and Resize dialogs. If you typed extremely fast you could cause a crash by typing a negative number and immediately pressing OK or Enter.
      * Fixed a File->Save dialog issue in Win7/Vista where it could ask you about overwriting the wrong file.

Für die flotte Bildoptimierung / -bearbeitung nutze ich seit gefühlten Ewigkeiten die Freeware Paint.NET und weiss, dass sich auch unter euch einige Fans der Software befinden. Für diese ist vielleicht das Plugin-Pack interessant, welches Paint.NET  mit vielen, vielen Effekten ausstattet.Die Plugins bekommt ihr einmal in einem großen Paket, als auch einzeln. Sämtliche Plugins werden auch in ihrer Arbeitsweise erklärt / gezeigt.

Neben den einzelnen Plugins gibt es auch ein weiteres Paket, nach dessen Installation Paint.NET in der Lage ist, 52 weitere Dateitypen zu öffnen. Für Benutzer von Paint-NET sind die Plugins auf jeden Fall einen Blick wert. Spart Arbeit, die man sonst mühsam von Hand erledigen muss.

This build is not available via the built-in updater. There is no need to uninstall your old version; that will be taken care of automatically. You can also reinstall v3.5.3 if you need to, in case this v3.5.4 beta is cranky.

I was hoping I wouldn't need another update, especially so soon, but an issue with File -> Save As was reported and it's honestly important. See the discussion here: http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=33660
Reproducing this is easy,

1. Start up Paint.NET
2. Open any image, we'll call this A.
3. Open another image from a different folder. We'll call this B.
4. Switch back to the first image.
5. File -> Save As

In previous versions, and according to both expectation and convention, the Save As dialog should start up from the folder that A was opened from. Instead, it opens up from B's folder. If you aren't paying strict attention (and honestly you shouldn't need to) you could save "A" under a new name but then not be able to find it because it's not where you thought you put it!

Stated more generically, the Save As dialog always starts up in the same directory that any previous Open or Save dialog was closed from.

This build also fixes a crash in a few plugins related to their "Open" dialogs. Namely, pyrochild's Color Match ( http://paintdotnet.forumer.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=25300 ).

Changes and fixes since v3.5.3:

      * Improved performance of the Image->Flatten command by making it multithreaded.
      * Fixed the File->Save As dialog not opening to the correct folder.
      * Fixed a crash with certain plugins and their use of the File Open dialog.
      * Fixed a very rare crash with the toolbar's font list.

What's New:

* Performance in many areas has been substantially improved, and overall memory usage has also been greatly reduced (especially when more than 1 image is open).
* The user interface has been refreshed with new icons, and visual styling has been enhanced for Aero Glass (Windows 7 / Vista only).
* Upgraded to use the latest .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, which has many built-in performance improvements.
* New effect: Blurs -> Surface Blur, by Ed Harvey
* New effect: Distort -> Dents, by Ed Harvey
* New effect: Distort -> Crystalize, by Ed Harvey
* The font manager for the Text Tool has been completely rewritten, resulting in increased performance and better reliability. On Windows 7, the quality of text is much better as a result of using DirectWrite (this also works on Windows Vista if you have installed DirectX 11).
* The built-in updater now has the ability to download updates in the background, and will wait until you exit Paint.NET to install them. In previous versions, the download happened in the foreground, and you had to wait for the entire process to complete before you could use Paint.NET again..
* Now includes a Russian translation.

This release is strictly to fix this one bug: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/20196-does-pdn-delete-picture-once-saved/

So before you ask: no, I didn't add or change anything else, versus v3.5.5. (Well, I changed the icon for 'language'.)

This beta is not available via the built-in updater. I hope to publish the final build soon.

Paint.NET v3.5.6  released on November 18th, 2010
This update fixes several issues related to copy-paste, improves performance and quality for a few adjustments, and fixes a data loss bug.

    * When pasting an image, Paint.NET will be smarter about ensuring it is placed within the area that has been scrolled/zoomed to.
    * Improved the performance and quality of the Curves and Hue/Saturation adjustments.
    * Some minor improvements to memory usage, which should help out a few scenarios on 32-bit systems.
    * Fixed: If a JPEG was loaded that had an embedded ICC profile, and was then saved as an 8-bit or 24-bit PNG, then the resulting file would be corrupt (32-bit PNG worked fine though).
    * Fixed: 16-bit TGAs no longer load with the red and blue channels swapped.
    * Fixed: Copy-paste from a Remote Desktop session will no longer be 'shifted' by 3 pixels.
    * Fixed: Copy-paste from Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Chrome should preserve alpha/transparency.
    * Fixed: Copying from Paint.NET and pasting into Windows Live Writer should now work.
    * Fixed: Taking a full-screen screenshot with Print Screen on a multimonitor system, where those monitors don't form a simple rectangle, will now fill the 'gap area' with transparent instead of black. (Example: two monitors of the same size, one of which is rotated by 90 degrees)
    * Fixed: If Paint.NET is opened without specifying an image to open, and then the default image is modified and saved, then Paint.NET will no longer close it upon opening another one. This was causing data loss if that default image had layers, and was then saved in a format that did not support layers (anything other than .PDN).
    * Fixed: Some systems were showing 'red X' thumbnails for .PDN files in Windows Explorer, instead of the real thumbnail.
    * Fixed: The EXIF "Creation Software" saved along with images is no longer localized. This prevents certain languages from seeing "Paint.NET v3.5.6" in the image properties (metadata).

Changelog:

    * Saving an image is now fault-tolerant. If there is an error or crash while saving, the original file will be left alone.
    * Worked around a bug in some plugins that are incorrectly using the built-in Gaussian Blur effect. For example, Sharpen+. Now they won't crash.
    * Fixed a bug with Edit->Paste into New Image, where the new image would be 1 pixel too wide or tall, as reported at http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/20969-paste-problem/
    * Fixed a bug with the Rectangle Select tool and Fixed Ratio selection, which would be off by 1 pixel, as reported at http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/20820-croppig-by-fixed-ratio-is-inexact
    * When pasting an image from Paint.NET into Paint.NET, it will be a little smarter about where it puts the image. Previously, if the location wasn't within the viewport, it would be placed at the top-left corner of the viewport. Now it will find the nearest point along the edge of the viewport to place the image.
    * The EXIF rotation ("orientation") metadata is now discarded when opening an image, which was causing aggravation with images that could then never be reoriented correctly using Image->Rotate
    * The EXIF metadata for JPEG thumbnail data are now correctly discarded.
    * Fixed a handful of memory leaks.
    * Fixed a typo in the Italian translation. In the setup wizard it was referring to "Pain.NET" (woops)

Paint.NET v3.5.8 - Download, released on March 5th, 2011

This update fixes some issues with the fault-tolerant save feature introduced in 3.5.7.

    * Fixed: Saving to a folder that has been moved or renamed will display an error instead of crashing (regression from 3.5.6)
    * Fixed: Saving to a Sharepoint site will now work (regression from 3.5.6)
    * Fixed: Saving to a file that is marked as read only will now give an error instead of crashing (regression from 3.5.6)
    * Fixed: General reliability and correctness improvements to fault-tolerant saving

http://www.getpaint.net/

[SiLæncer]

Here’s the changes from v3.5.8:

    Improved: The "Auto-detect" bit-depth setting for PNG, BMP, and TGA now also determines which bit-depth to use based on which one produces the smallest file size, as well as which ones can save the image without losing fidelity.
    Improved: You can now use Ctrl+0 as a shortcut key for View -> Actual Size, in addition to Ctrl+Shift+A and Ctrl+Alt+0.
    Fixed: Some text in the DirectDraw Surface (DDS) Save Configuration UI was not being loaded.
    Fixed: Some DirectDraw Surface (DDS) files authored with other software (e.g. Unreal 2004) could not be loaded.
    Fixed: In some rare circumstances, clicking on the Save button in the toolbar would crash.
    Fixed: The Korean translation has been added back in, with the help of Bing machine translation to cover the few remaining strings that were untranslated.
    Also, fixes since the 3.5.9 Beta include a few compatibility issues with plugins.

The official changelist:

    Fixed: Ctrl+Shift+A now works again as a shortcut for View -> Actual Size (broken in 3.5.9)
    Fixed: Ctrl+0 still works for View -> Actual Size even if 10 or more images are open (broken in 3.5.9, it would switch to the 10th image).
