[AssetStore] CreateTexture
An article by 
Yay! My first asset store script got accepted..:) Had to try it out so maybe later can put something more interesting there.
It’s a simple editor plugin for creating plain texture assets (png files).
Did it for my own use, because it seems you always need some blank texture file while testing shaders/materials/terrains etc..
(and its not fun to always go and open external editor just for creating empty texture)
*If you know how to make editor scripts, then dont buy that plugin..anyone can do the same easily.
(create texture2d, save it as an asset, add some power of 2 calculations if needed)
Whats new:
– v1.2: Basic gradients (vertical, horizontal), Code cleaning.
—
ToDo / Features requests / Ideas:
– Gradients (linear, radial, circular)
– Checker texture
– Noise texture
– Rounded rectangles (for UI)
– Tileable textures

Added some notes/requests about AssetStore submission to unity feedback site: (That submission tool really needs fixing..)

Congratulations! While not particularly in need of a tool like this it’s good to see you upload a script to make some money.
A lot of your scripts on this site would be in high demand on the asset store, I know I talked to you a few months ago (almost a year) about a few of your scripts, and I know I’m not the only one.
Congratulations!
Well done, Congrats.
I’m interested in this asset.
Questions: I need something like this while the game is playing. Is it possible to create textures during the game?
You can easily create textures runtime without this, so no need to get any plugins for that, and Unity has PowerOfTwo functions included.

For runtime i’ve seen few color picker plugins too,
had one simple test here also: http://unitycoder.com/blog/2011/10/21/mvertexpainter-v1-0-webplayer/
Well done. Nice little asset for quick prototyping
v1.2 is now live in store (basic gradients added for starters)
