Hey guys, I have a little problem. I downloaded a gradient pack and would like to use it now. The problem is the file ends with .ugr and photoshop tells me that this file is not the right kind of document. I searched a little bid, but I didn't really found anything.. Can any of you help me please? Thanks in advance I guess you could try changing the extension name to something else? I never downloaded anything for Photo Shop so I wouldn't really know... Greetz, E. Opening and saving gradients Gradients are saved in gradient files (*.ugr). A gradient file is a plain text file that can contain any number of gradients, so you can store and organize sets of gradients. To save a gradient, click Save on the File menu. The Save Gradient browser will open. You can save the gradient in an existing gradient file or in a new file. Type the name of the file and the title of the gradient and click Save. To open a previously saved gradient, click Browse on the File menu. This opens a modeless browser. Make sure Gradient Files is selected in the toolbar. Select the gradient file that contains the gradient that you want to open, and then double-click the gradient inside the file. The gradient will be opened in a new stand-alone gradient editor. To open a gradient in the active gradient editor, click Replace on the File menu instead. This is useful if you want to use the saved gradient in a fractal. Notes When saving a gradient, you can choose to save only the color or opacity parts of the gradient with the Save Color and Save Opacity checkboxes. Another way to open gradients is to click Open on the File menu and select a gradient file. A modal browser window will open, showing the gradients in the file. Double-click a gradient to open it. Palette files in Fractint's MAP format (*.map) can be opened just like other gradient files. ?? that may help you out horaz Originally Posted by editee I guess you could try changing the extension name to something else?

I just found that Apophysis can load the gradients with the extention .ugr. So I guess I would need Apophysis :S
