: How to get a "pour" effect I am trying to manipulate an image so that it looks like it is being poured out of a jug as a stream. Unfortunately I don't have access to Photoshop, but I do

Options:


Define what kind of liquid you need, mainly transparent or non transparent and viscosity.
If it's for a comercial project, find a stock image suitable to your project.


You probably need to find separated images for the liquid and for the jar.

Mask and cut the liquid, rotate if necesary.
Mask and cut the jar.


The problem is that Paint.net will not work for you.

Use Gimp that has a tool you will need. It's called Warp and you can find it under

Menu > Filters > Distort I Warp


This is to modify the curvature to fit your dimensions.



But Chris' comment is true.

Nowadays a lof of this kind of images are computer simulations, or CGI Computer Generated Images . Blender www.blender.org/ is a great option.

Look for a Blender liquid tutorial like this one for example www.google.com/search?q=blender+liquid+tutorial
