Orbs Tutorial for Paint dot Net

Want to know how to make orbs? How about making one and still don't have the luxury of affording a Corel PaintShop Pro or Adobe Photoshop?

I found this great tutorial for creating orbs from scratch in Paint.Net.

Now that you've learned how to create one, you can customize it to insert images inside the orbs. Just click the layer and set the layer mode to Multiply for that image. Note that this may only work if both layers have the same background color.
