Full Page Watercolor Stains
A collection of full page watercolor effects for use in your Homebrew content
Designed by /u/flamableconcrete
Special thanks to the following authors for their inspiring tutorials

TL;DR Gallery of full page watercolor stains.

Background
As mentioned on the cover page, there are already several tutorials on how to create a watercolor effect using the homebrewery and they go into much more detail on how to customize images for your exact needs. I chose to write this not as a guide to duplicate the efforts of others, but as a gallery of ready-made full page stains I have created for quick use. These are not one size fits all, but I have found that the effect works well for my purposes and I wanted to share.
Imgur Links Note
There are a few Imgur links referenced in this guide. Due to Imgur not wanting gmbinder to link to it directly since April Fools Day 2018, there is a space in the URL that if you really want to go there you'll have to deal with that yourself. Just FYI!

How To Use
First things first. Find a stain you would like to use from
- My Watercolor Gallery
- My Imgur Album (https://imgur . com/a/OZt2m)
- Draco's Imgur Album (https://imgur . com/a/SKmRN).
Copy the snippet from the left side of the page to use this effect in your gmbinder products.
Some notes
-
The dimensions of the page are 816px wide x 1076px high
- If your image is sufficiently high resolution, increase the width and play with the top and left corner
-
/u/QalarValar's guide has tips on transforming images
-
Blending mode from /u/AeronDrake's guide does not look great when it overlaps a watercolor boundary. The best solution to this is to only use foreground images that already have transparency for the background.
-
It is very difficult to wrap text around an image when the image is on the left, so some stains are less usable right now. It would be ideal if someone figured out how to make the shape-outside CSS selector work with these, because I couldn't!
Another Note!
In my watercolor gallery I recently added some full page stains that have what I call "splotches" on them. These look sort of like brush strokes or coffee stains. Take a look at page 8 for an example of what I'm talking about. This style of full page stain has no transparency, so no "Cool background image" will show through. You have been warned!
Create Your Own!
I created these stains in GIMP using the watercolor brushes (https://imgur .com/a/TW79K) from /u/QalarValar's tutorial. I am not a graphic designer by any means, but I did the following steps:
- Download the album using the Imgur Album Downloader website
- Convert them to GIMP brushes (.gbr)
- I uploaded them to deviantart for your convenience if you want to use them yourself
- Add the .gbr files to GIMP Home Directory
- Windows: C:\Users\{your_id}\AppData\Roaming\ GIMP\2.10\brushes
- Mac: /Users/{your_id}/Library/GIMP/2.10/brushes
- Windows:
- (GIMP) Click Refresh Brushes in very bottom right (or restart GIMP?)
- Open the default background and start erasing and adding brushes wherever you want. Layers help
- Export as .png
- Upload somewhere and reference it in gmbinder!
