Quick and Easy Way To Turn Image into Gradient?

[notyou87]

Hi, is there a quick and easy way to turn image files into a gradient instead of having to manually do each colour?
I have some gold gradient images and they are in EPS format but I don't want to have to add each colour - is there anyway to do it automatically?

I don't know of an easy way to do it. Do you have an example EPS formatted file we could take a look at? Might be able to do something with scripts.

1.5mb on zippyshare - was not sure where else to upload, sorry



Problem with this, opening EPS in PSP it keeps the background, so there is also a black background on it.

WARNING! I clicked on the link with Internet Explorer opening and got warnings from Malwarebytes about malicious content plus SPAM audio and popups about my computer being infested with a virus. The latter was spam to make me click on links to allow the spammers to access my computer - which of course I didn't - and the Malwarebytes warning was obviously correct. I had to use Task Manager to close Internet Explorer. Clicking the "X" to close the popups just generates more of them.

I had difficulty working out which download button to click. Sites like this should be reported or closed as they try and trick you into clicking on an advertising link. The OP should look for a safer alternative to use for transfer of files.
I was able to work out that the link was in orange and was the only one to show its destination when the nmouse was hovered over it.
The actual link is

I agree, only go there if you have appropriate protections. For example, a sandboxed browser and heavy cleaning of the resultant file. Which I do have. I also have a fool-proof method of dealing with viruses if they do break my defenses. I throw away the harddrive and restore my last backup to a new one. xD

Alright, going through the file I cannot think of a good way to do this with PSP. So I'm useless here. I can import the EPS file into Affinity Designer and copy the data from there, but that's just as manual and requires a different software. Technically you just need a program that can grab the appropriate data and return the gradient information. I'm sure something exists somewhere. Though Ghostscript View was a bit of a bust. Which is actually a little weird considering PSP uses GhostScript to read EPS and PDF files.

Hi All, sorry.. Do you have a preferred host for uploading files in the future?
I use ad block + Ghostery and on Zippyshare it's a big "download" button that is obvious, I get no popup or malicious stuff at all, this is how I see as soon as I load the page link I provided:

As soon as I click "download now" it instantly works, nothing more. It doesn't do that for all of you? I use Chrome if that helps.

This is what I see from Australia

So you can see the confusion with the multiple advertising Download Links.

But your question does bring up the question what sites can be used for file transfers . Used to be Photobucket, but they have gone all funny now, charging more than it would cost for you own domain name and website hosting.

Maybe I was tired at the time but I could have just used my Google Drive... haha I am an idiot.

dropbox is also a free alternative but it requires installing the software on the sharers computer. Google Drive is a good solution.

Dropbox doesn't require the software to share files. You get a small boost in storage if you download and install but it isn't required for use of the service.

DropBox may cause problem with old PSP :
