HOW TO CREATE A SEAMLESS PATTERN IN PHOTOSHOP

[@doubleante]

You can also use Filter > Other > Offset to offset horizontally and vertically in one go without the cut/paste and snapping troubles.

[@VeronikaPoloni]

Yep, my thoughts exactly. Makes the whole process 1000% quicker and easier.

[@bozsongz3652]

Finally, a RUclips instruction that goes into every detail in a deliberate step by step teaching that can be followed! I'm used to pseudo teachers who just want to impress the entire internet. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[@ArtsyDork]

Thanks! I'm glad you found it helpful!

[@user-vn3dg9lp2g]

nice

[@catherinefernandez2124]

I really liked this in terms of the explanation. I am a newbie so I don't automatically know what someone is referring to. You referred to transferring images and doing a repetitive pattern. Do you have a video on that? Thanks!

[@ArtsyDork]

Thanks. I do not have a video on that, but you could find .png files that were copyright free and didn't have a background. Then you could place them (File - Place Embedded) into your document, merge those layers and then use the same process in this video to make them a seamless pattern. If I get a chance, I'll try making a video that will show how to do that. Thanks for watching!

[@minidesign1]

Great tutorial !

[@ArtsyDork]

Thanks!

[@ashkanvakili5788]

there's a way easier way of doing what you did with merging and cuting and moving and so on. why not using the offset filter? go to filters>others>offset and type in half of your width and height of the frame. in a matter of seconds you will have the same effect automatically.

[@ArtsyDork]

Very good point!

[@cms4Lena]

Yes, but that is her approach - you can see what is happening around. Somebody who watches does not know + and - math so obviously.

[@mushpaymensa3635]

This is a great tutorial! Thank you :)

[@ArtsyDork]

Thanks!

[@ivanriobla]

that was awesome !

[@cms4Lena]

You can save as .jpeg here in Phs. Open Illustrator/New doc/Place this .jpeg/Object-Rasterize/Drag it to swatches. Then use it as pattern onto shapes or type.

[@hardndapaint3872]

very helpful!

[@ArtsyDork]

Thanks! Glad it was helpful!

[@totonet1]

Thank you very much for this simple and effective explanation. I tried everything you said several times but when i define it as a pattern and scale it, in each joint edge, it appears white lines horizontally and vertically. What can I do to prevent this?

[@kimc207]

Thanks so much for this!

[@ArtsyDork]

Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

[@fridastark2060]

Thank you!!! Just what I was looking for.

[@ArtsyDork]

Glad it was helpful!

[@LauraWilsonAnderson]

Well, I could barely hear it, but it's a fantastic tutorial anyway. I think I might even be able to make a seamless pattern myself now, if I can wrangle photoshop, lol.

[@ArtsyDork]

Thanks. That's a common comment on my videos and it's clear I need to work on my audio. I appreciate the feedback.

[@Belladotta]

I was happy to find your video very understandable. But I doesn´t have the"new guide" on the views panel. I have tried to found solutions but nothing. My version is Adobe Illustrator CS5. I hope someone can help me please!

[@heyitsshadz]

thank you very much.

[@TechWayTamil]

[@ArtsyDork]

[@vicrush]

P.S thanks for video. it was helpful.

[@starsoul_7]

Thank you. Will this work in 7.0?

[@ArtsyDork]

I believe this should work in versions past 6. I'm currently using this method in CC.

[@klarimillencolin]

This is awesome! thank you ( :

[@lucienmarcelo5127]

thanks!

[@gonzalez-valdez8043]

100% of pure awesomeness!!!! Thank you so much!!! ? I don't know if you can help me with this so I inset a png file and it comes in with the transform bow. I resize it and after I click on to remove it and it doesn't do anything. What an I doing wrong with this png file? Thank you!

[@ArtsyDork]

Hmmm, I'm not sure if I understand. If you're still seeing your bounding box you may try unchecking "show transform controls" while in your move tool. Png's can be tricky when sizing too because they don't have a background. Perhaps that is causing problems. If so, you could try merging the PNG layer with a solid-colored layer. Good luck!

[@blueboltshrimp]

Thank you so much!

[@ArtsyDork]

Thanks for watching!

[@AnnaDavtyan]

thank you very much!

[@libbykimpson5947]

how do you take the visibility away from the guides? click command what?

[@ArtsyDork]

It's command colon/semicolon or control colon/semicolon if you are on a PC.

[@jackiebenson11]

For some reason when I went into pattern overlay my new pattern wasn't there. Hmmmm

[@katanukatanu6799]

I can't command+x in the first step, does anyone else have this problem??

[@ArtsyDork]

If you're on a PC, it might be control+x.

[@libbykimpson5947]

what to you press? "command ....." I didn't understand/hear what she said

[@ArtsyDork]

Command X to cut and command y to paste. (control on a PC). :)

[@hladkyraquel8282]

there is a much easier way using filter-other-offset clicked wrap arround
