Scriptographer.org - Ideé replacer

Script uses an great online service http://labs.ideeinc.com/multicolr
to find similar images to path's fill color. Then it just replace the selected artwork with an image and clip it with the original path.

Demonstration of work

UPD1: Seems like the idee services changing a lot. So, probably this script will stops works again in the feature. If it will happen, just post an comment here and I will try to fix it. Right now I do some hacks and upload new version of script, it works again. And its still get small previews from tineye hosting. I think it is possible to grab an original image from flickr, but it will work slower because of an additional server request and image file size.

UPD2: Idee API was changed again. Warning - new version of script generates a lot of images in the same folder, because of a new image downloader.

I get this:

Any thoughts?

Hi there,

I really want to give this script a go and realise it's a few years old now.
It doesn't seem to work for me.

Is there a code / something I can try to get it working now??

Cheers

Mark

It seems like URL http://labs.ideeinc.com/rest/? in the body of the script no longer works. Can anyone fix it? This script is very helpful!

Sure, it can be made to work. With a little bit of digging, it looks like the URL form is now:

http://labs.tineye.com/multicolr/rest/color_search/?limit=73&offset=0&return_metadata=<userID/><photoID/>&colors[0]=ce5f97&colors[1]=c06b9f&colors[2]=cf519c&colors[3]=dc5091&weights[0]=40&weights[1]=20&weights[2]=20&weights[3]=20

You can use it with just one color/weight as well, though specifying multiple colors is useful.

Here's an example:

Thanks for this URL form...but I'm having trouble trying to edit it into the script I downloaded.

I don't suppose I could get any help?

Just trying to get it to work.

Cheers

Script updated!
Added new image downloader, it generates a lot of images near the script.
You can move it somewhere by editing paths in code

Hi Peko,

Great script but I'm getting access denied. I did turn my firewall off.

Hi Peko.

I can get most scripts to work, but not this one.

I make a few coloured shapes in illustrator. Highlight them and press the execute script button and then nothing happens.

I get this message...

Do I need to load up the http://labs.tineye.com/multicolr/ site first?
Or somehow insert the colour options in the code?

Cheers
