YES! Awesome mate, not the interface I remember, but might be a newer image. This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks. Give that man an award!

These are all pretty good, but the one I'm looking for in particular allowed you to choose the colours used for the effect, as opposed to 4 reds you could choose 4 red-ish colours.

That's the right effect, but the plugin I used allowed you to choose a number of colours, for example 2 shades of red. It had a random feature bottom left and a clear button to removed unused colours from the "palette" If I was to use that effect, I'd be limited to the 64rgb colours, and if the brushes I used are extremely different from the base, I can't reduce the wide range to 4 shades.

An example of its use would be: Creating a 2d sprite and using transparent brushes to add detail Using the plugin to refine the 60 colours of the sprite to 12

afraid not. The plugin keeps the same colours, green becomes green. The change it makes is that the 50 different greens become the 4/5 greens you selected.

The plugin took full colour photo's, and either select colours from your palette, or randomly select an amount, and then try to match the colors as best as possible to the image. There was a preview to the right of the window, taking up most of the plugin window, and a large white box bottom left containing the selected colours. The result can be a pixel-esqe image or even just a monochrome image. thanks edit: Found, thanks to red orche 'Selective palette' here http://forums.getpai...?showtopic=8043
