    Pattern Background

    This nifty tutorial will teach you how to make repeating pattern-backgrounds. This tutorial will use standard shapes only!

    Learn how to make a pattern background!

    • Step 1 First of all, let me tell you that for this tutorial, you don't need fancy shapes, because Photoshop allready has a large variety of shapes like the ones below:

      Pattern Background

    • Step 2 Create shape with some objects.
      Your shape doesn't HAVE to look like mine, but it has to "kinda" fill the square space;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 3 Once done, merge all the shapes together and downscale it using CTRL+T;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 4 Time to turn on the GRID with CTRL+'
      Once the grid is on, you must center your shape just by dragging it to the center. The grid will automatically center it;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 5 Go to Edit>Preferences>Grid.. etc... and choose the options that will devide your document in 4(!!!) pieces. I choose these options;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 6 Then select (WITH THE GRID ON) the lower-right corner and place it in the upper-left corner;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 7 Do the same opposite-pasting with all corners;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 8 Then select all corners and merge them together.
      The downscale them and place them in the middle;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 9 Make a selection around it;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 10 With the selection on, go to Image>Crop;

      Pattern Background

    • Step 11 Then save it as a pattern by going to Edit>Define Pattern and then later go to Edit>Fill and fill the layer with your new pattern and use it whereever you like!

    Patterns

    You MUST know these patterns before you start your own website because these patterns are just the bases of the more advanced patterns. This tutorial also features the Scanlines illuminated...

    These are the basic photoshop-patterns that nobody can live without!

    • Note: I'm gonna teach you how to make the 6 most famous and most-used patterns and how to add them!

      N.1 This is the dotted pattern wich we will start by creating a 3x3 document and placing a black dot with the pencil-tool in the middle.
      As for all patterns we need to go to Edit>Define Pattern to save it!

      N.2 This pattern is made by creating a 5x5 document and draw a stairway from the upper left corner to the lower right with the pencil-tool.

      N.3 Just do the same as you did with N.2 or just go to Edit>Transform>Flip Horizontal if you're just as lazy as I am :)

      N.4 Start this pattern by making a 10x10 document.
      It's kind of the same as N.2 and N.3 but it gets you bigger lines wich is sometimes very handy!
      Again, if you want it the other way around, flip it...

      N.5 Create a 5x5 document and create a cube with a hole in it.
      It may look crap right now but if you look at orb N.5, you'll see that is gives sweet results!

      N.6 Scanlines. I covered them in a different tutorial, but it's very simple.
      Just create a 3x1 or 1x3 document and try to make it the same as my image down...

    » Table Wood Texture
    Published 05/21/2006 | Textures & Patterns |
    1) Open Adobe Photoshop and create a new image, I used the dimensions 300 x 300, but any size will do for this effect. Set your foreground color to #999999 and your background color to #FFFFFF. Once you have done this, goto Filter > Render > Clouds and keep doing it until you get an acceptable set of clouds, as shown below.



    2) Next, we are going to add noise to this image. To do this, goto Filter > Noise > Add Noise… and use the settings below.



    3) Once you’ve added the noise, we are going to pixelate the image, goto Filter > Pixelate > Facet.  You should see the same effect below.



    4) Next, lets add a crosshatch by going to Filter > Brush Strokes > Crosshatch, and your render so far should look like mine below, using those settings.



    5) Lets make the wood grain look better by going to Filter > Brush Strokes > Angled Strokes. See below for example.



    6) Add a new layer, like shown below and



    7) Change the blending mode to Multiply, and opacity of the new layer to 70%.



    8) Take the Paint Bucket Tool (G) and fill the new layer with the color #6F4009. The hit Ctrl + E and merge the 2 layers together to have 1 versitile layer.

    1) Open a new document, any size - fill the background with (#004477) note i used (200x200 for the size)



    2) Now click 'Filter' > 'Sketch' > 'Halftone Pattern' and enter these values: (size:1; contrast:5; pattern type:dot).



    3) Now we use 'grain' to get the 'jean' effect - click 'filter' > 'texture' > 'grain' again.. follow and enter these values: (intensity:100; contrast: 38; grain type: regular).



    4) Now it looks all crappy to be blunt, to fix this we use a simple solution of 'hue/saturation' so hold and press 'ctrl + u' enter the following values into the popup window.



    5) Our final result:

    2) 'Filter' > 'Render' > 'Difference Clouds' - repeat this step 2 MORE times:



    3) 'Filter' > 'Artisic' > 'Cutout' - change the values to: (number of levels:8; edge simplicity:5; edge fidelity:3) now click ok.



    4) To add colour.. we bring the hue/saturation window up - do this by clicking 'ctrl and u'.
