Color Scheme Helper for Gimp

colors, external tool, GIMP, color schemes, python

In addition to my Lorem Ipsum Helper and my post Sharing color palettes i created another helper that allows you launching the color scheme designer Agave directly from Gimp.

» Download and copy it to

/home/#YourProfileName/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins

Make sure the file is marked as executable. You will find it at "<Image Window> > Colors > Color Scheme Designer...". Any feedback is welcome

Hi. To be honest I'm disapointed. This plug-in only starts Agave, so I have to have Agave installed allready.

@mmiicc
Yes you are right it does nothing more, that's why i call it just a helper. But in Agave you can add the colors you like to Favorites and export it as a Gimp color pallete file. After that you has the colors available in Gimp
