Color Schemes

Hi Gimp-user,

I was looking for ways to create color schemes, on the desktop, and I spotted this recent entry on the Gimp Registry RSS Feed. It looks nice. I haven't installed it, mostly because I don't have the required library installed, grapefruit. It's on my list of things to try :-)

Palette Generator http://registry.gimp.org/node/15833

I started looking around and spotted Agave, a color scheme designer for the Gnome Desktop. The files can be exported as Gimp Palettes.

Agave http://home.gna.org/colorscheme/

Anyone do anything special to create palettes?

Thank you.

Interesting. I'd not seen these yet.

Nothing special. When I'm looking to choose complimentary (re: matching) colors I use two web sites:

http://colormixers.com/mixers/cmr/ http://www.easyrgb.com/

I found these while working on some CSS issues, but they would work as cut/paste into the color choose in GIMP.

I like Agave a lot. The (Adobe) kuler website is nice as well - I wrote (an admittedly hackish) plugin to import kuler palettes: http://registry.gimp.org/node/10325

It could use more testing - if you feel like it, please try the plugin and let me know if it works for you. It requires python and gimp-python. Easy in linux, but takes a few steps in windows.
