Help with pattern-seamless?
|
|
I want to take a small part of an image and create a pattern. When I tru to apply the pattern to a large area it ends up looking like 500 tiles of the small sampled pattenr area. I would like it as one large seamless pattern/texture. Is this possible and how do I do it. Appreciate all help.

SPYDERIX is right. if you use the offset filter with values half of your original tiled image size you can create seamless textures. Some things to keep in mind are: try to have an even number of pixels. flip between the normal and the offset image. images that are are a multiple of 8 seem to work better. once you are happy with the origonal image try tiling it as a 2x2 square. Anything that loos odd should be spotted at that stage. to get them right takes a lot of little tweaks. using tools like stamp at 50% opacity helps.
