Hi,

I'm fairly new to graphic design for Photoshop and hope someone can help with this.

I am trying to fill an area with a pattern I defined. I had both images open. I marqueed the entire image I wanted to define and then defined pattern. When I went to fill all the parts that I magic wanded, in some of the area, there was a split where the pattern started and stopped. Is there any way I can fix this?

I appreicate any feedback wit this.

Thanks! Michele

It looks like the lines you see are the "edges" of your pattern- the edge where it cuts off, then begins again. This happens a lot with "define pattern" or using the texturizer. The pattern only fits into a certain area, then begins again. Often, they don't line up everytime. You might try making the pattern @ 300 or larger dpi.

However, if it were me, looking at your design, I'd probably skip the "pattern" idea altogether and just use the art you created for the pattern pasted in as a layer.

For example, paste the patterned artwork into the magic wanded area. that way you can move it around
