Using Paint.net to Edit Ballparks

[GiantYankee]

I've spent a couple of hours trying to use paint.net to place a cuban flag over two dugouts. Basically I want a generic stadium for my cuban league. I copied an image from wikipedia, saved as a pic, and pasted as a layer in the ballpark image of the Nationals. I'm having troubling rotating the flag so it fits on the dugouts. Any tips? Suggestions?

Which tool(s) are you using to rotate your flag image?

Rotate/Zoom under the layers tab.

Yeah, that's what I was going to suggest. How about the "rotate" functions under "Images"?

Is this what you had in mind?

I made some other changes removing references to the Nationals or MLB.

That rotates the entire image and not just the layer.

Yes! How did you do that? I want to make a night version and I don't want to bug people on the forum every time I get a new idea.

I used Photoshop and I am not that familiar with Paint.net. In Photoshop the tool I use is "transform" which allows you to rotate the layer but also allows other contortions like skew, and perspective.
Maybe a Google search for a Paint.net equivalent will help.

Thanks so much. Unfortunately I don't have photoshop and the google search didn't come up with an equivalent for the photoshop transform function. I appreciate your help. If you have a few moments could you hook me up with a night version?

Hate to overload my ballpark editor but try emailing Kev24Fan. He is the one that edits all of my parks and makes night versions of day stadiums.
Two of his stadiums, one from my High heat series. one that JRP posted and Kev edited.

I will look at it and see what I can do for you.

[kev24fan]

I know its not perfect. I had a hard time doing the 1B dugout. Somebody may be able do do a better job.

I use Gimp for my editing and its free to use.

I can use gimp to do some really simple things. Post 1 was attempt with gimp. Thank you for working on it for me. Could I just ask for a version without the Nationals 'W' behind home plate. Thanks again.

[kev24fan]

Is this ok?

[GiantYankee]

Thanks so much Kev24.
