I'm trying to color in an image, but I want to use a totally 1 bit palette,like this- to get an effect similar to this-
I know the second image actually has shades of gray, but the effect is similar to what I want. Is it possible to do this in gimp?
I've only ever used gimp sparingly and for simple stuff. I now need to set the palette of a 8-bit png to a specified palette, but I can't find any in gimp or online about how to load a palette. I need the palette to contain colors that may not be in the image if thats possible as these images are sprites of under 40 colors, but I need a full 256 color palette. Also is there any simple way to convert a string of numbers into a gimp palette? If not Ill probably just look at how they are saved and just write a simple script, but I thought i would ask.

In the image seen below, I see that it can remember 12 colors in the main palette on the left, but with the color dialog palette on the right, there seems to be no way to add or change colors there, but it has more room than for 12 colors.
Is there a plug-in that allows GIMP to remember more than 12 colors? I did a search in the plug-in registry but I didn't find one.
I've been working on scenery tiles to serve as ground textures for an X-Plane airport. To get seamless transitions between the tiles I work on four tiles at the time and subsequently copy this large image to four smaller ones. Before I started out I ensured that all images were converted to full color (millions of colors) since they came with a limited 256 color palette in the first place. Still, during some copy and paste operations I've got tiles with a drab hue. So, it evidently takes the palette of the image I paste it unto which would make perfect sense if that palette was limited. However, it shouldn't be!
I've got around the problem by pasting problem tiles unto other images or started from scratch with a white canvas. It seems that any existing palette is limited and will skew the hues of a layer being pasted unto it. I work with *.xcf, then *bmp and finally *png in case this makes a difference. So, does a "full color" *.png still have a limited palette? Further, is there a way to ensure that a selection will retain its hues beyond starting out with a global choice of millions of colors?
I have a picture of 200 or so colors. I can create a palette of it by going to indexed mode. No problem there.
My problem is when I load a different image, and if I try to recolor it to this new palette, GIMP is choosing the new colors according to the luminosity values, not what the colors actually look like.
Is there a plug-in or something that makes GIMP choose the closest-looking color?
I have an image which I want to display using only a limited set of specific colours which I have defined in a colour palette. I am aware of the colour map plugin, but from what I can gather from the documentation it simply uses each pixels luminosity as an index. I want to to map each pixel to the colour in my palette that most closely represents the original colour. How do I do this?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to make a slideshow GIF with about 12 pictures. The problem is that when I convert the image from RGB to indexed, the quality of the pictures are horrible (dithering didn't work). I tried isolating 1 picture from the other 11 layers, and converting it to indexed had great quality.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the problem is that the color palette is too generic, since the palette has to include all colors needed for all 12 pictures
According to wikipedia, the GIF "allows a separate palette of 256 colors for each frame".
Is it possible to create GIFs with separate color palettes for each frame?
is there a way to take an image opened in Gimp and display the palette of colors in the image or convert the image itself into a palette of colors that are in the image?

I want to save the 16 colors in this pic to a palette for later, but how? I've been looking in vain through the menus for a way to save this color map as a palette. Maybe there's a script or plugin somewhere, but it is hard for me to believe there isn't a built-in way to do this.
I love single window mode in the new 2.7 series. I currently have my preferences such that the main tool palette is locked to the upper-left side of the single window.
However, I can't move it. How to replicate this on a new install (since by default the tool palette is on the upper-right and can't be moved).
I'm guessing I missed a setting / preference somewhere. How do I move the main tool palette?
Previously, I had been able to add .aco color palettes to GIMP and use them. But they are suddenly no longer in my palettes menu and I'm getting this error for each one I had added (and used before):
Fatal parse error in palette file 'C:UsersChristina.gimp-2.8palettesTransitional.aco': Missing magic header.
The Palette Editor won't stay on top when GIMP is in Fullscreen mode,yet does when GIMP is not in Fullscreen mode.

BUT: underneath the preview it says "the selected source contains no colors."And continuing the palette is indeed empty.

I know how to use eyedropper to pick up colors and save them into a palette. could I export the colors I picked up (one by one) and save their RGB values into another file directly. Suppose I picked up 10 colors, I want the RGB values of these 10 colors could be retrieved by a single time. Now I have to type these RGB values into another excel sheet one by one.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAs a pixel artist, I could not find the following:
1) I have been searching for a way to edit my color pallette indexes in real time (preferrably through a RGB/HSV slider). Is this currently possible through any means?
2) Is there a way to cause a pixelated effect with the gradient tool (or any tool)? This can be used for quick background effects, speeding up a process for a piece.
3) Turn off the dimming from the navigator window when I zoom in.
4) (See attachment) Adjust the status bar to be more useful than just simple tips. I also don't need a scaling indicator if the navigator window forces me to have one. It would be nice to turn this off for the navigator window as well. Being able to maximize the space for that window would be ideal for more detailed previews.
I already use GIMP for stilled pixel art, and would like to maximize my speed and efficiency doing so.
I am unable to decrease the width of the Palette Editor window. How doI do so?

I've read elsewhere in the forum that there should be two rectangles somewhere on the screen that show foreground and background color, but I don't see them anywhere.

I have been trying to get my paletteset to remember it's closed location but cannot. I have tried using a ststic GUD when starting the Paletteset:
Dim MYGuid As Guid = New Guid("DC218198-EFDE-4802-AF55-C9613342F7A4")
M_ps = New Autodesk.AutoCAD.Windows.PaletteSet(String.Format("Rapid Layer", MYGuid))
I have tried saving the location value to the registry from the Close event of the palette, and then restoring it in the Command function.
I have also tried using the App settings to save and restore this value.
How can I get the Paletteset to remember it's last location?
I use RGB for almost everything I do.
I've got everything set to work in RGB, no problem. New documents are created in RGB. My palette on the right of the screen is always RGB unless I load an existing non-RGB document. Everything saves in RGB and prints in RGB.
Except...when working on something and attempting to change or apply a Line Color or Fill Color, I will click on the color option, a Color Dialog window appears...and if I click on Palette, the Pantone Spot color palette appears.
I physically have to go in every time, bring up the palette tree, and hunt for the RGB palette. I never had to do this with earlier versions...I always got the RGB palette as the first choice, maybe based on the last used?
I've gone through all the setup options and customizations. I can't find where to set the RGB palette as the default in this procedure.
I'm trying to display the RGB palette in CorelDRAW x5. When I open the Palette Manager, the usual palettes are listed i.e. "Shades of Gray", "CMYK" etc. When display the various palettes by clicking the "Eye" icon next to them, they all display as expected with the exception of the RGB palette. Although it doesn't display, I can see its (bottom-left) shadow. Put another way: it seems to be displaying just off-screen to the right.
Any way to get it to display correctly?
FYI: Some time back, I used two monitors and I may have left the palette floating on the other screen. I don't really think that's the case, but it's possible and I mention it in case any of you think it might be the problem.
I am using coreldraw x5 . when i first installed i had an image palette (think that's what it was called) on the page that i could move around and it had everything on it including colors. but now its gone and i cant find how to get it back.

how to use Photoshop CS3 for Macs, which had a history palate on the right side of the screen. It was way easy to undo and redo steps and it was super convenient to have. I recently downloaded Photoshop CS4 for my Windows laptop, and it doesn't have a history palate on the screen! It's been driving me crazy because I used it all the time on CS3.Does anyone know if CS4 for Windows has a history palate, and if so, how to get it onto my main screen?
