30 Ultimate Web 2.0 Layer Styles for Gimp

Average: 4.5 (190 votes)

Downloads Details:



After moving from Photoshop i wanted to be able to use the Ultimate Web 2.0 Layer Styles in Gimp,So i got my self to re-create 30 of them. hopefully you will enjoy as much as i did .

With these pre-made Gradients you can easily make Cool web 2.0 headers, backgrounds, button, and almost any web based designs will always need some nice gradient affect to it and instead of creating them using multiple layers all you need is to use the Gradient fill tool to apply the effects.
feedback is appreciated:)

Here are the names of the 30 Styles.

Install Instructions
Windows:
to install, unzip and place all the gradient files into
\.gimp-2.2\gradients

Special thanks goes to Navdeep and Naveen

Extract the files into

~/.gimp2.2/gradients/

where ~ is your home dir, i.e. /home/johnny

GIMP version may vary.

Yep they work on all versions of Gimp, all you need to do is drop it in your Gimp "Gradients" folder I'm not sure exactly which path gimp is installed on mac but if you did a search for Gradients folder and drop the files in there it should work fine.

GPL for gradients?

What does that mean, exactly? What licensing effect are you trying to achieve with that? Wouldn't one of the Creative Commons licenses be more appropriate?

your right, i really had no idea what i was talking about :S now that i read about the types of licenses being under the CC is more appropriate. i updated the post with the CC license.

Installed nicely on Linux - Ubuntu

Submitted by Visitor on Sun, 08/26/2007 - 22:57.

Thank you very much for the download. Installed nicely on Ubuntu system. Anybody new to Ubuntu or Linux can easily install this. Download file to your desktop, right click, extract with default (top line on right click menu I believe). A new window will open listing all the gradient files (.ggr) in the download, select them all, extract them to /.gimp-2.2/gradients
which is same as /home/username/.gimp-2.2/gradients. Make sure you're options are set to view hidden files.

make sure all the .ggr files are placed directly inside of the gradient folder and not in a sub folder within the gradient folder. what type of OS are you using?

I'm using windows XP. .grr files are Gimp gradient files? when I extracted the file I just typed in the gradient extension and supposedly it was successful. I couldn't find the gradient folder just by looking through the program files directory. I hope this helps.

ok this is why...

Submitted by Gimper on Fri, 09/21/2007 - 01:55.

ok thats why its not working, the gradient folder is located in the "Documents and Settings" under your Account user name, for example, my Account is named "IBM" this is the full path on where i place mine D:\Documents and Settings\IBM\.gimp-2.2\gradients
hope that helped
