    Hey everybody,
    First time posting here. I’m looking for a little help with Pattern Maker in Photoshop CS4. I’ve gone and installed it from the Content disc, but I’m having trouble actually using it. I’m trying to take an ornamental font character that I’ve selected and copied and make it into a sort of embroidered background. Something like this (https://www.lauravandenberg.com/). Everytime I try to make a pattern from my character, its cropped and distorted in bizarre ways. I’ve tried changing the attributes but I can’t figure out how they affect the pattern. I’ve also tried rasterizing the text but it still looks odd. Can anyone shed any light? Thanks.

    Scratch that. Using Edit>Define Pattern is WAYYYYY easier. 🙂
