Python Random Paste Plugin for The Gimp

This is a Gimp plugin to randomly paste the contents of the clipboard into a selection. It allows you to randomly rotate each pasted item and was used to make a number of the terrain textures my game, Coldest. Note that to avoid hard lines between the pasted areas I recommend feathering the selection that you copy from.

The script can be found here: https://github.com/cybertron/gimp-plugins/blob/master/randompaste.py Download the file to your ~/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins directory and ''make it executable''. It will show up as "Random Paste" in the Map submenu of the Filters menu.
