Re: [Gimp-user] Can this gay flag gradient be added to releases of gimp?

["Dora Smith" <villandra gmail com>]

Thanks, darxus.

I have a suggestion, though.  People really want to celebrate events this 
week, which maybe not by coincidence coincides with Gay Pride Week, and not 
in a couple of years when the new edition of GIMP comes out.   You can make 
any GIMP add-on and circulate it on line, and see if it catches on.

Send me your script privately, and tell me how to use it, and I'll try it 
out myself.  I feel like celebrating.   It's been one of those our entire 
culture shifts completely in one week weeks.

By the way, Darxus, I know one doesn't normally do this, but I'm so sure you 
did NOT mean to discuss this only with me, especially as you specifically 
addressed yourself to someone else, that I'm posting it back to the list. 
I'm not the only one who thinks gradients grade, and I'm not who you wanted 
to tell they can use gradients to make their gay flag.  This list is set up 
so you have to reply all to reply to the list, and that is so unusual I fail 
to do it half of the time.

There are a couple flag gradients included with gimp, I think one of them
was French.  Gradients can have hard edges between them.  I assure you this
gradient does exactly the thing you'd want.  With a click and a drag you
have a gay flag over your image.
