GIMP Chrome Scripts — Description
EDIT October 9, 2008: Fixed script so it will work in GIMP 2.6 (the newest stable version.) It should also work in GIMP 2.4. If you have a previous version of this script, please delete it to avoid conflicts.

Let me know if you have any problems with it.

needcoffee asked me to do a script version of his Chrome Tutorial , so I obliged! Stop by his site and tell him "Thanks" for the tutorial and allowing me to turn it into a script.

Click on the Download link to get the script for GIMP 2.4 (which is simply a text file) and save it to your GIMP scripts folder (ie....Crogram FilesGIMP-2.Xsharegimp2.0scripts) and then go to Filters > Script-Fu > Refresh Scripts. If you would like a script for GIMP 2.2, click here: fencepost.gimpdome.com/Scripts…

Add some text or some other object that has transparent space around it. Highlight the text (or object) layer and go to:

Filters > Alpha to Logo > Fencepost Chrome...

Let me know if you run into any problems with it.

Suggestions welcome.

2/19/08: Fixed the scripts so now they work MUCH better with the color function. Hopefully, your final product will look like you would expect it to. So, if you want gold, you'll get gold, not some yellowish-psychadelic-looking stuff!
