Importing color index from .PNG?
#2
Quote:...There's a website under "Colorscheme.com" -domain name where visitor can download color index in .PNG format. My Question is How to import Color Index from .PNG -format to my active GIMP -project...

Some possibilities


1. Use the values from the png colour swatch and edit the colourmap of any particular indexed image. The color map dock is in Windows -> Dockable dialogues  and Edit comes from there.

   

2. In Gimp a colormap cannot  be separated from its indexed image but it is inherited by any added image. Open as new layer (or drag-n-drop) over an indexed image and the colourmap is applied (RGB images are converted to indexed).

   

3. What can be saved from the png colour swatch is a palette. From the palette dock (Windows -> Dockable dialogues again). Use that when converting a RGB image to Indexed. 

   

4. Other ways: There are several ways for RGB-only images. One is Tools -> GEGL Operation -> Color Warp example:  https://i.imgur.com/Ok8oCkw.jpg 
or 
Third party plugins such as gimp_gmic_qt http://www.gmic.eu  Try transfer colors (PCA) & (Variational) example using the png color swatch as the reference image. https://i.imgur.com/BGbCWZE.jpg
