WytchDokta Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I'm trying to figure out how to make my own pattern part of the patterns pallette in Photoshop. I want to be able to use my own brand new pattern as a pattern overlay for text and also as a brush. So, how can I do this? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avey Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Design your pattern. Press Ctrl + A to select it all. Edit --> Define Pattern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WytchDokta Posted June 23, 2006 Author Share Posted June 23, 2006 Cool. Thanks dude that worked. Soon my camo HUD for GR will be completed.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WytchDokta Posted June 23, 2006 Author Share Posted June 23, 2006 (edited) Er.... I've defined it as a brush too, but when I go to brush tool, I can only select standard colours. I want to paint with my camo pattern I've just defined as a pattern, how do I do that? Edited June 23, 2006 by WytchDokta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WytchDokta Posted June 23, 2006 Author Share Posted June 23, 2006 (edited) Well, I did it in Paintshop Pro 8 in the end, but that keeps giving me "image is not a power of two" etc error message upon saving the file (saving as .rsb). So it didn't work afterall. I know there's a way to get around that error, but I can't remember it now.

Sup Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I know there's a way to get around that error, but I can't remember it now. Uh, make your image a power of 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, the way around it was something like swapping out the .rsb plugin with an older/newer one, depending on what you're using as a plugin already. So if you're already using the DS plugin, swap it with the IT one and vice versa. I think that was the workaround. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornToKill Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Not heard that work around, DS plugin was screwed, only use the IT version. Image has to be of certain sizes and ratios. 1024*1024, 1024*512, 1024*128, 512*512, 512*128 etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
