*For screenshots of the 6 new crafted dyes from patch 2.1, please see my new entry.*
*For store-bought dyes from merchant NPCs, please see next entry.
Some screenshots as color reference for FFXIV: ARR dye system. I did all 13 colors on both sets of my gear. These screenshots will show how each of the new (craft only) dyes look on different type of materials (cotton, velveteen, leather, metal, etc.)
The set on the left consists of:
Head – Mythril Magnifiers
Body – Velveteen Gown
Hands – Cotton Halfgloves
Legs – Cotton Breeches
The set on the right consists of:
Head – Steel Goggles
Body – Velveteen Doublet Vest
Hands – Woolen Work Gloves
Legs – Boarskin Culottes
By the way, I’m sorry that the second set toward the end had its pics taken around sunset, so the colors might seem a bit weird due to the lighting. ><;;

Soot Black Dye
Dalamud Red Dye

That’s it for today!

Do you have a link to a guide on how to craft dyes?
I don’t think there is one, but you can find related information on my other entry about dye. http://www.aleczan.com/FFXIVARR/2013/color-pigments-and-dyes/
In short, you have to be level 30 on any of the craft classes, and gather or buy a Color Pigment of proper color for your wanted recipe, and then craft it. Sorry for my late response.
