Re: Pluginless Chrome effects
Yeah, something like that - that 256 limit has ballsed me up more than once. It's annoying to say the least. Plus, there's nothing realistic than a bitmap fill - the colours, the contrast, however we change the contrast, the saturation, still stay correct as regards their relationship to each other. The linear fill works for your beer tap because it's not the focus of the drawing. The exercise in this thread concentrated on the focal object in the drawing being chrome. You can't get away with any inconsistencies when it is the main focus of your drawing. However, if you think you can do it, have a go. If it works, I'd love to see it. I wasn't able to do it using a linear fill with transparency as you'll see if you go through the whole post. Can't wait to see your offering (vectors only, remember).
If someone tried to make me dig my own grave I would say No.
They're going to kill me anyway and I'd love to die the way I lived:
Avoiding Manual Labour.
