k.digennaro Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 sorry tried to make the title clear.. Any way, In MS paint when you make a gradient you create an image 100 pixels wide by how ever tall, then fill it and split it at the diagonal and color in the other half with another color. Heres my question, to make it like a gradient you go to sketch and skew and make it 1%, there fore it basically stretches it down to 1 pixel, then you scale it to 500% till you get the size, ive been teaming up with both programs to make gradients using the effects from PDN then pasting them into MS paint to make gradients, basically im looking for a sketch skew sort of menu in PDN, is ther one? ill post some images of wat im talking about. Okay, so heres what i was talking about with MS paint, Jazzed it up with the red I want to be able to do something similar with PDN as the sketch skew, is there something?

pyrochild Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 I'm not sure I understand the point of this. If what you're trying to do is make a multi-colored gradient, use my Gradient Mapping plugin. IF the point is to make a standard 2-color gradient, just use the Gradient tool in PdN... This seems like an awfully roundabout way to create a gradient. If you absolutely must do it this way, then use the Image -> Resize tool. Uncheck the "Maintain Aspect ratio" checkbox, and set the width to 1. Make sure the Resampling option on top is set to Best Quality.

k.digennaro Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 aw, okay thanks pyro, my point was you can make like 100 color gradients with MS paint or make a design in it, but i wasnt sure how to do it with PDN, ill give the resize thing a try. Heres a little more complex gradient done on MS paint Thats wat i want to do. Ill give it a shot Quote Support Our Troops, End The War Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Man Dan Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Select Bilinear resampling on resize. Check out this old tutorial for an example.

k.digennaro Posted January 18, 2008 Author Share Posted January 18, 2008 awesome, thank you crazy, thats exactly what i was looking for, no need for MS paint any more thats the only thing i did in ther lol Quote Support Our Troops, End The War Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barkbark00 Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 Th effect you are getting with Paint is the same as PdN's motion blur. This retains that nice grainy factor...if that's soething you want to keep? CMD's method will give you nice, smooth, graduated colors.
