Paint.net is a Free, easy-to-use photo editor with support for layers. If offers a wide variety of tools.


In order to get the free green screen effect on photos using the paint.net software you must download and install the Chroma Key plug in that goes with it. Once you have downloaded the program, then download the plug in. You must also place the plugin file into the effects folder of the paint.net program. Instructions for downloading and installing are at the end of this page. 

Download and Installation Instructions:


1. The software can be downloaded at http://download-paint.net/ . Just download the software and open it from your “downloads folder” or desktop. Download and install the program then download and install the plugin.

 
2. The Chroma Key plugin can be downloaded from a variety of sites. . The downloaded file will be what’s called a .dll file. This is one web address for the program:
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia/Graphic/Graphic-Plugins/Chroma-Key-green.shtml 



3. The chroma key file is a zip folder that will need to be unzipped with an unzip program. You probably already have one installed. Just right click and choose "Extract to ChromaKeyPlugin" . Once it’s unzipped, it will include a single file titled, named “ChromaKeyPlugin.dll”.  A final installation step is to move that .dll folder into your program file.

4. Locate the program files for Paint.net and copy and paste the downloaded ChromaKeyPlugin.dll  file into the effects folder.  It may seem complicated, but it really only takes a few minutes and you’re good to go.

    Paint.net is (at least in our opinion) the simplest option on the list. It still comes with a ton of powerful features like layers, adjustments, and user-created plugins, but is simple enough that complete newcomers can grasp it immediately. The features are across the top, and filters are accessible from a drop-down menu.
    Some of the special effects are pretty cool: sharpen, blur, distort, emboss, etc. You can even get some Instagram-esque vintage effects in there for good measure. We don’t want to waste too much time on this one. It’s got a lot of features, an easy interface, and a simple layout. If you’re struggling with others on this list, then stick with the easiest option.
