Custom Patterns

With almost any version of Photoshop, you can desing your own patterns. They are very simple to make, and there so many different ways to make them.

    
1. To make a grid pattern, open up a 20 x 20, by going to EDIT>>>New.
2. Zoom in a lot, as least 1000%
4. Grab the pencil, and pick a color. The pencil should be 1%
5. Draw the design that looks like the picture I drew on the left.
6. Now go to EDIT>>>Define Pattern, and name it what ever you like!
7. Now lick an image you would like to test your new pattern on. Once your image is open, Use your Pattern Stamp Tool to find the new pattern you just made.
8. Play with your Opacity, size and brush. And your done!


Although there are many patterns, first you must learn the simple ones. Try making your own some time! If you need any help, please email me for anything at:
