Post Your Gradients Here

[GnuTux]

Here's a shiny metal gradient. It's pretty versatile for making metallic & chrome maps.

Nice gradient, GnuTux. Thanks!

[GnuTux]

Thanks, O! Nice results you got with it.

Here is a collection of what I'm calling "Mother of Pearl" gradients.





More later...

Thank you Tux, they are all very beautiful.

[Wallace]

Those are some really nice looking gradients, thanks for uploading them for us Tux.

[GnuTux]

Molly & Wallace. I hope you find these useful.

Here are several more...

for the metallic gradients. Just what I was looking for. Now I can make my designs all metal looking.

jazzon asked me to post the gradient i used in this post, so i'm posting it here now (it's the one called "moody rainbow"). i made it at the same as i made a whole bunch of rainbow/spectrum gradients to make rainbow brushes from, so i also post a zip with the whole set in case anyone is interested.



1. moody rainbow
2. hard spectrum soft colours
3. high saturation soft spectrum sinusoidal
4. crayon smooth spectrum
5. smooth bamboo spectrum
6. hard spectrum many shades
7. crayon hard spectrum

Thanks AnMal, those gradients look very nice.

Anmal - wow, thank you for those - have downloaded them straight away; imagine what kind of glass paisleys they will make!

How could I have ever suggested to Jazzon that you probably used a 'standartd GIMP rainbow'- very, very silly me

EDIT - I downloaded your spectrum gradients and have tried 7zip and one other program to extract them, but each tells me they are 'unsupported compressions'. Can you please tell me which zip product you used?

[jazzon]

AnMal, thank you so very much!

[AnMal]

oldmangrumpy: dang, and i was looking forward to rainbow glass paisleys! i used 7zip and just tried unpacking the files myself. on my computer it worked fine and the files weren't damaged in packing or unpacking. hopefully it's just that something unexpected happened while i was uploading or you were downloading. i'm attaching the zip-file again, let me know if it works!

jazzon: you're welcome! hope there's nothing wrong with that one at least.

[oldmangrumpy]

Anmal - thanks for checking out the gradients; I downloaded them again but still received errors when trying to 'extract' them. I continued anyway and loaded them into GIMP but then received GIMP error messages ... oh well.

OMG
do you have and use 7z to unzip it?
I just downloaded, unzipped using 7z, moved to my gradients storage and...no problems!

[jazzon]

OMG Here are AnMals gradients. They unpacked ok for me, so I rezipped thim using some linux tools. Try this one.

Dinneset His post shows 7z diagnostics screen, so I doubt that's the issue. Query: Could the issue be AnMal is using GIMP 2.8 and OMG GIMP 2.6.x? (I think it was he who said he was using 2.6)

Also you can uninstall 7zip. Then use Ccleaner to make sure any leftover 7zip file are removed and reinstall another copy of the software to see if that does the trick.
If that doesn't work, you can try out this free online file extraction tool... http://online.b1.org/online

Gimp gradient files have not changed for 2.6 or 2.8 and I can't remember if they have ever changed mach at all over the years.
A gradient for 2.6 will work fine in 2.8 and vice versa.

I stand corrected. And thanks for the info.
