Pixelpost

This addon extracts one of the most used color of an image and calculates eleven matching colors ranging from darkest to lightest color. The matching color scheme can be used to create a harmonic template. Color extraction and calculation happens only one time per image. The results are stored in the pixelpost database.

• This addon can be used in the image, browse, about and comment template.
• The new tags to use in your templates are:
  • <COLORID> - matches <IMAGE_ID> (to be used in browse and about template)
  • <COLOR1>,<COLOR2>,<COLOR3>, ... <COLOR11> - 11 colors from darkest to lightest color.
