Can you help me find this plugin

[thegraygoo]

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

Could be this?

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.

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

I'm wondering if this is a built-in feature and not a plugin.  Have a look at Adjustments > Posterize.  Is that the effect?

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.

Try these:

 

Posterize Alpha

 

Posterize in HSV Space

 

Posterize+

[thegraygoo]

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.

Bit of a long shot - could it be 'Selective palette' here http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?showtopic=8043 ?

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!
