Colorize Real life colors are just the beginning! This picture was treated with the ColorizeBlueNumber5 script. It's a reminder of a time (long ago) when photos were hand-painted for color. While not exactly realistic, the pastel paint does give the picture a soft, serene quality. How do I get the Colorize scripts, and how do I run them with Paintlet? Good question. Read on. |

Another way to create that feeling of Olde Cape Cod
is with the ColorizeBurgundyNumber5 script. A hint of olive to balance
the red.

The original untreated picture.

Another antique treatment with ColorizeAntiqueNumber5. The sky is
more prominent here. Note that the clouds in this picture
are in fact clear blue sky in the untreated picture. It works either
way.

This picture was treated with ColorizeAntiqueNumber6. It has a
heavy, almost muddy, appearance. Reminds me of so many pictures
in my attic. A dusty glimpse into the past.

Notes
|
|
A PaintletScript is
a small text file that contains psl tags, similar to an HTML file. These
psl tags give instructions to Paintlet, telling it what graphic operations to
perform on the canvas.
Paintlet automatically creates a folder named ptScript. To run a script with Paintlet, simply copy the script file to this folder. When the PaintletScript dialog is opened in Paintlet, find the list of available scripts in this folder, and select one. Now click the load button, and the script will open in the mini text editor. Click run and watch the script execute on the Paintlet canvas. The Colorize scripts can be downloaded in a zip file. Unzip the script files into the Paintlet ptScript folder. Run them, edit them, change them, experiment with them. These script files use a COLORMAP tag. Both the colors and distribution of colors defined in this tag can be changed. |
