Popular Post ReMake 997 Posted February 20, 2017 Popular Post Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 (edited) Pyrochild wrote a marvelous Gradient Mapping plugin. However, its possibilities are uncovered not completely. I found some gradients at our Forums. Note: gradients for old version of a plugin (like MiguelPereira's Gradients) are incompatible with the new version and can lead to crash paint.net. Gradients.zip by MiguelPereira for new version Gradient Mapping. Contains 4 gradients: Lemony, Rainbow, Weird, and Weird2. Spoiler Sarkut's Yellow Gold gives golden color to elements of your image. ThermalImage by natjo1986. It fades from purple to red or fading from cold then to hot. Pop_Art_Hope colors the image in PopArt style. Pratyush's Metallic Presets contains 16 different gradients of shades of metal. Spoiler Pratyush's Sky Presets contains 23 different gradients type of sky. Spoiler I made some presets to stimulate usage of Gradient Mapping.Note: put in a folder Gradient Mapping only gradients necessary for you. At a large number of gradients, you can not see them all in the drop-down list of gradients. Black and White.zip contrast gradient for tutorials. Spoiler Bokeh.zip contains 11 different gradients which allow to paint parts of the image in color inherent Bokeh effect. Spoiler Chocolate.zip contains 9 different gradients of chocolate color. Spoiler Colors.zip contains 9 different multi-colored gradients. Spoiler Fire.zip contains 12 different fire gradients. Spoiler Fruity.zip contains 13 different gradients with fruit undertones. Spoiler Golden.zip contains 9 different gradients of golden color. Spoiler Harmony.zip contains 7 different multicolor gradients. Spoiler Metalls.zip contains 5 different gradients of shades of metal. Spoiler Neon.zip contains 10 different gradients like a neon glow. Spoiler Pop_Art.zip contains 15 different presets for creation of portraits in Pop Art style. Spoiler Rainbow.zip contains 9 different gradients in rainbow tones. Spoiler Silvery.zip contains 10 different presets with silver shades. Spoiler Simples.zip contains 14 different two-color gradients. Spoiler Spectrum.zip contains 5 different four-colored gradients. Spoiler Vintage.zip contains 10 different preset for changing the image like a vintage photo. Spoiler I hope to see your work with presets for Gradient Mapping. Open for itself the wonderful world of colors! To be continued... Edited 1 hour ago by ReMake Added images for Pratyush's presets. 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pixey 4,799 Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Thank you very much @ReMake I just tried out the colors and they are fabulous - especially the gold and the silver and I'm sure the others will be just as pretty . 1 Quote How I made Jennifer & Halle in Paint.net My Gallery | My Deviant Art "Rescuing one animal may not change the world, but for that animal their world is changed forever!" anon.

The gradient Mapping plugin won't load folders. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pixey 4,799 Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hi @sashwilko You have to first find your Paint.net User Files on your computer, then go to Effect Presets and in there you will find the Gradient Mapping Folder. Copy the colors into that. Good luck .

lynxster4 3,148 Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 @sashwilko, pick the gradients you want to try out and put them directly into the 'Gradient Mapping' folder. That's the only way they will work. You'll be doing a lot of 'swapping'!

sashwilko 499 Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 Thanks for the replies, I know where the files go. but sadly without examples of what effect they create, it is basically a case of loading on a trial and error basis ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ReMake 997 Posted February 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 At this time about 100 preset are presented. Graphics of each preset will demand a lot of place in the post. Therefore it is necessary to check their actions by use of each of them. Maybe this will help: The Wonderful World of Gradient Mapping! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had almost forgotten about this tutorial (thanks for the reminder!). I have used it in the past and it's a great starting point, so I also recommend it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LionsDragon 939 Posted February 22, 2017 Report Share Posted February 22, 2017 Thank you so much @ReMake! Until today, I didn't know how badly I needed to be able to create metal in red (my favorite color). I suspect I'm going to be using Gradient Mapping--and your fabulous presets--a lot now. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
