Mahvin Camouflage Script for GIMP

[trandoductin]

After following Mahvin's GIMP tutorial: Camouflage Revisited
I suggest you follow the tutorial so you learn how the process is done.
I thought it was such an interesting technique using Tilable Solid Noise layers so the pattern is a seamless one. (much more interesting than GIMP's Create/Patterns/Camouflage. At least i think so).
I decided to script the process so that users can quickly play with seed values and colors.
If you find a seed value(s) that you like you can even share it with friends (I think the seeds allow you to reproduce the exact pattern again if same seeds are used, if random seed isn't checked as YES).
Here's the script

Script's options. You can specify seeds to produce same result every time or use random seeds, and change colors, and choose to flatten image or not

Here's a sample result produced by version 2 of script (you can see it's not as pixelated as the first result).

Cool! Thanks, tran!

(I like purple rather than green, so I made one a little different....)

Very nice Meemaw!!

Tin, do you ever sleep? You whip up a new script in a second and answer posts as soon as they appear!
Great script BTW. Should make Mahvin a happy fellow!

Thanks, Pat625!

I was thinking the same thing about you, Tin! You seem to be here all the time.... (however, we live on the same continent, so maybe you are asleep when I am....) It is a great script!

That must be it.. I sleep when you do..that would make sense... If i didn't have to sleep... Twice the number of posts/script would be out

just updated with version 2. Smoother edges (not as pixelated)!

LOL!!! You still seem to be here all the time....

i don't log out so it seems like i am on all the time maybe i set the stats to show active within the last 60 minutes instead of 5 minutes because i read somewhere that's most forums do when they start out. Then once it's busier i can lower this interval down to lower number of minutes.
