[mod] Image Converter/Importer [imaging]

[entuland]

This mod allows to convert arbitrary images and build them in a Minetest world using up to 256 different colors, with some additional options such as bumpmapping.

This mod is composed by two parts:

- the "converter" is an HTML page to be run in a browser to convert images into imaging codes according to a given palette
- the "importer" is a block called imaging:canvas placed in the world to define the bottom-center of the imported image and its orientation

Important: for some reason Chrome is flagging the above zip file as containing a virus or the alike - which is of course wrong - and it probably does that because of the contained JS files. I have other repos with plenty of JS and I have no idea why it's flagging this repo in particular. You may want to clone the repo instead of downloading the zip file, if you can't force your browser to download the archive

Works on 5.1.1, how could I miss this great mod. m(__)m

Oh, nice to know this still works!

I should find the time to work on this and try to support arbitrary RGB without having to use a customized palette...

Hello
would you consider adding this mod to the ContentDB?
I'd like to be able to add it to collections, and make it accessible to educators.
It makes a great tool for importing floorplans of buildings.
Thank you!
