Tinting Wallpapers With GIMP

Category: Uncategorized / Tags: no tag / Add Comment

Here’s some quick GIMP magic. I have a wallpaper I like, however it’s in blue while the new Ubuntu color scheme is all about purple. So this is how we fix it:

  • Open the image you want to tint in GIMP
  • Now add a new layer on top of the image
  • Select the color you want to tint the image with (R43, G0, B30 for Lucid Purple)
  • Bucket fill the new top layer with the selected color
  • Set the layer mode of the top layer to Hue

Voila!
