About This Course

Learn to edit photography, design logos & graphic art, game sprites, memes and more. Free & easy with Paint Dot Net!

Want to create content or edit photography but don't want to spend the time or money on something as intimidating as Photoshop? Use Paint.Net instead!

In this course I will teach you a variety of skills and concepts using Paint dot NET that are common across many image editing software packages, even Photoshop. You don't have to be an artist or designer, anybody with a PC and an imagination can bring it to reality. As a programmer I'm pretty far from being a legit artist yet I've used this software to create content for various video games I created.

Maybe you are setting up a blog, or an online shop and need branding and content. Perhaps you want to edit family photos, make greeting cards, or spice up your social media posts. Or you just have a passion for epic memes and think you have the next viral sensation. Whatever the desire I'll show you how you can make it with just a little bit of time using free, fun, and easy software.

  • Edit photography

  • Design logos/branding

  • Create game sprites & textures

This is a useful course for beginners. The instructor explains how to use every tool in the program. However, there are not enough practical tutorials on how to use these tools. This course would also benefit by covering some of the optional addons that Paint.NET supports but are not part of the program. The volume in this course is too low.

I've been using paint.net for some time and always learned features only as I needed them. Sometimes there would have been much easier ways of doing things if I had just taken a video course like this. I have used pretty much most of the features of paint.net by now, but again I might not look at more than I needed to know for what I needed to get done. And, so going through almost everything comprehensively in this course has revealed new things to me that I would use in the future. One last comment: the volume of all the videos needs to be increased greatly. Even though I have an external speaker with amplifier I could not raise the volume enough to hear well. I resorted to using a volume adjuster extension on the browser to increase the video sound by 550%.

This course was incredibly useful to me. I had been struggling with image editing using paint.net, and did not want to use Photoshop which has tons of classes. I learned so many useful methods and tricks with paint.net. This course is probably the first one I've ever taken (out of many!) that I plan to go back through again. There were so many things to learn that I didn't catch them all the first time through. Thank you for this course!

This was a fantastic course for learning the basics and a few more complex features of Paint.Net.

I would recommend it to anyone looking to learn how to use this software as an alternative to paid alternatives out there.
