Following the Green Apple tutorial found here
This script allows you to change any colors mentioned in tutorial (other than black and white for light and shadows).
The script will be under Script-Fu -> Create New -> Green Apple

Just copy it into your gimp's scripts folder.


The settings looks like below, defaulted to conbagui's colors


The default apple


With some colors changed

Looks cool trandoductin.

thanks lylejk!

There is only one potential problem with this script. It calls "Bevel and Emboss" which expects a name of a pattern, even though "use texture" is set to FALSE, it still expects the pattern name to be valid. I hard coded it to use a GIMP's default pattern "Pine". I don't know if "Pine" is translated into other languages. If it is translated, it's gonna cause a problem for Carlos in Portuguese.

Does anyone know of pattern names are translated into other languages besides "Clipboard"?

If "Pine" is translated into something else, I currently don't know how to solve this potential problem.

Excellent Tin!
Two very little things:
1-it couldn't be launched if there is no image open (even if not used).
I suggest you remove the entry "RGB*, GRAY*" after the date and put instead """"
2-it could be nice (if possible) to let the user define the image size.
If in the script you use other hard-coded sizes strictly related to the image size, you may define them as a percentage of the user defined width/height or -a much simpler way- you may let the user entering only one size (let's say the width) then only at the end of the script scale the image you created using the input width

Anyhow congrats!
We have a new good script-writer implementing tutorials for ... lazy users (like I am).
May I ask you -if you like, of course- to implement also Issabella's Silhouette Text tutorial?
I like that outcome....

I tried running the script and I got nothing. Do you have to add an image in order to run the script? It doesn't produce the image of the apple after the script has been run.

dinasset,
thanks for suggestions.
1) i will do thanks for the hint.
2) thanks for that great hint by scaling image size at the end.

I'll take a look at Issabella's Silhouette Text tutorial.

mackenzieh,
what do you mean by nothing? like nothing NOTHING? Did you see the steps performed it takes a while, and it creates a new image. Check your task bar for other Gimp windows.

@mackenzieh
sorry if I'm make a stupid annotation:
maybe you clicked on a greyed-out entry? as I wrote to Tin, the script does not run if there is no image open (so far)

No, the area was not greyed out. I had a background open and ready and the script still didn't produce an apple.

Yes I saw the steps performed. I still didn't get an apple. I even tried adding a layer on top of the background and I still didn't get an apple.

added 2 changes recommended by dinasset (thanks again) I like it better now.

mackenzieh,
If the scripts runs and performs the steps and no errors are returned you should have a new image window with the apple, maybe you're expecting an apple over your background image.
I don't know what else it could be.

Tin,
thanks a lot for the new version!

Something's wrong because it's not producing an apple. I've ran the script with out the backgorund image and still don't see an apple.

Well, it didn't for me. I still don't see an apple. I must be missing a plug in on order to run the script, but I have no idea what plugin that could be.

mackenzieh, i don't know what else it could be. If you're missing a plug-in it the script should give up and return errors as functions/procedures would fail.

I got rid of the script since I couldn't get it to work.

Graechan, great idea
I changed it to go under Script-Fu -> Create New -> Green Apple
makes more sense.
