Hi Rod and Oregonian, I made this gradient and used it to reapply to O's link to the copper kettle. I think this is what O was looking for. The Kettle here is the same kettle but desaturated and color/map/to gradient with the attached gradient. You can easily use the curves tool in red mode to make it more "rosy". I think that Rod's colors are actually very close to new copper.

Sorry Rod , I have no idea what you are asking me. I took about 20 colour picks of colours that, to me, represented the colours that I associate with copper utensils. I then made a gradient using those colours. I know, not scientific, but the method seems to work by and large. I believe there is a script that analyses all pixels and colours or your selections of that image and churns an algorithm to produce a gradient file.
At the moment we are on a few days off in a caravan and I am using my laptop. My Gimp hasnt even got gmic installed. I may do that tonight!

The Change Image to Gradient Application.
This is a stand alone app and is NOT a gimp plugin just unzip it, and double click the pencil icon and click the image that opens.
File>Open an image and draw your path line across the image.It has a bunch of tools to discover also.It saves as a GGR file. :bigthup

Image

Resulting radial gradient

Thanks Rod, but - after downloading/replacing - I still don't have the Text Fill Type addition
(and release is always .6); what's wrong by me?
