Hi
I made an animated gif to be displayed
while waiting for a download:
http://lingo.uib.no/daniel/wait/wait.gif
Three of the 21 source files are in the same
catalogue: http://lingo.uib.no/daniel/wait.
The question is not about the animated gif,
but about changing the source files.
I have ten different skins, and I want
to change the colors to fit these skins.
The bars in the background must remain exactly
the same, but the colored blocks should have
other colors.
E.g.: The colored block like it is now has
a color value of #E8AC57. I want to change
all five blocks from amber: #E8AC57 to blue:
#7187B3. That is, the 100% amber fill should be
100% blue fill, and the lighter amber block (80%)
should be equally lighter in blue (80%) and so on.
I tried in vain to write a makro/batch to perform
the color change on the source file. I tried to set
Color Range on an image on basis of the deepest;
that got me selected four blocks. Selecting on
basis on the next deepest got me all five. Either
way: when I Replace Color within the color range,
the background gets changed as well. I have manually
Magic Wand-ed the blocks to restrict the changing
area to them, and then filled the blocks, but a makro
wouldn’t be able to perform this I guess, since the
blocks move in position.
I don’t want to Transform by moving the HUE glider
in the Color Replace pane, since I know (and want)
exactly these hex values
#E8AC57
#7187B3
#D8D8D7
#FDEB72
#85FC5B
#DC5BFC
#D54848
#75FCF5
#929292
#EAB97F
How can I write a makro to do this
and spare me the work of manually doing
21 files * 9 remaining skins * 5 blocks = 945 fills?
I have Photoshop 7.0.
Thanks
