Gimp Color Palettes

Watercolor Set
This is a somewhat working watercolor palette taken from a photo of a watercolor paint set. This might be useful if you play with the Ink Tool and low opacity. Try that with Dissolve mode by the way, it will look interesting.

If someone knows the correct colornames, I'll accept patches to this palette. :)

VisiBone
The coolest web-safe palette ever for Gimp! This is a modification of the Gimp palette from www.visibone.com. I added the RGB-values to the color names, so you dont need to use the color-picker to check them.

Visit the website if you want a nice poster of the same palette.

VisiBone2
This is an updated version of the Visibone palette I got via email from Carey Bunks. Thanks Carey!

The palette is a more compact version of the first arrangement.

Coralreef
A palette I took from a coral reef photo I found from ftp.funet.fi. It has very nice colors that match very well together.

Mac System Palette
This should be the Macintosh system palette used for MacOS icons and stuff. I once needed to do some icons in this palette. Maybe this is useful for someone.

By the way, this is a very good low-color set, for example if you need to do stuff for 8bit displays.

Dream
This is from somewhere. Maybe from a splash screen or something. I am not sure. But it is a nice blue-gray toned palette. And I dont think it is included in the Gimp distribution so I put it here.

Approximation of "Pantone Coated" Palette
Note: this is not a real pantone palette. Gimp does not currently support real spot colors, but you might find this useful for previewing purposes if you need to print a monotone image with a certain color. And these colors are pretty nice for other uses too, just as a source of inspiration.

Just remember this is nothing you can rely on as a color-proof. No warranty, just a bunch of nice colors. Right?
