This image shows a texture generated by my Image2Color_Map utility. The input
image I used was of aluminum corrosion, and may be found here:

I am pretty happy with the output. Sampling colors from a real world substance
will do wonders for a texture.

That is a great technique to get realistic results!

I agree. Thi slooks very good. I am interested to use your utility when it 
becomes available.

Thank you. :)

I am currently polishing various things and adding more features, so alpha  
release has been delayed a bit.
One thing I am working on is a more robust XML output, that can be used to  
actually edit the generated pigment/color maps by other programs. Big  
files though...7mb or so average for the XML output from a 200x200 image.  
I am considering density_map export as well.

Right now the GUI is hideous, as I design that part last. Since the UI is  
disconnected from the underlying logic, I can redesign that at any time  
and just wire up the dll that handles all the good stuff.
