Everything there is to it is in the link I initially provided:
http://www.chaosreigns.com/code/dl/Gay-flag.ggr
(identical to http://www.chaosreigns.com/code/dl/Rainbow-flag.ggr )

To use it, look up how to use gradient files with gimp.  You put the file
in the gradients directory in you gimp folder (which in my case works out
to the file being /home/darxus/.gimp-2.6/gradients/Gay-flag.ggr ), then
click on the gradient tool, then select the gradient.  Then click and drag
across your image.

I'm confused about why you believe this, but I'm confident that I did what
I meant to do, and I'm fine with your forwarding it to the list.
