Plugin for reducing number of colors?

[Dafydd]

Hello

I'm looking for a plugin (or some other means) to reduce the number of colors in an image. I need the resulting image to have only 2, 3 or 4 colors, and I'd like to be able to pick these colors, and let the plugin test, for each pixel in the image, which of these colors it is most similar to, and then change it into this color. I know I've seen something that can do this before, but I can't find it.

Do a search for "kill color" plugin that is found in the Plugin Section of the forum. I can't remember the exact name, but there should be a few.

This is the only one I found. It's cool, but not what I was looking for.

This plugin removes a color from the seleted part of the image and tries to find a substitution for it by analizing the surrounding parts.

Oh dear.

Don't fret, my friend.

Try these plugins: IntentColor

Segment Image

Try to think outside the box when using these plugins. You may surprise yourself.

Edit: Found one that sounds like you could use. Color Count.

Do a search with this keyword, "Color," and set the location to Plugin. You may find your search to be useful.

I did just that, and didn't find what I wanted.

Segment seems to be pretty much it though. Counter can be used to make sure it really worked. Thanks!

EDIT: No, Segment didn't quite do it. Darn.

Try Selective Palette. It's part of Curtis' plugin pack. :wink:

There it is. Thanks, dude.

No problem.

This will break the image down to 16 colors, or a configurable number of colors

Added Custom colors mode (2 - 256)
