I have a background with a pattern overlay effect on it. I need to send my web developer a block of this pattern in jpg format so that he can translate it into a repeating pattern in the background of the site.

It seems that there must be an easy way to do this that I'm not getting. All I can think to do is to select a part of it on the screen and copy, but since it's already set up as a seamless pattern, I don't know where its "edges" are. Does that make sense?

Any ideas?

Thanks!

It might be easier to have a picture up here as I'm not sure if the pattern overlay effects being it seamless etc . But if it's really a repeating pattern it's searching for the smallest repeating area drop down some guides, scroll down drop another guide at the exact same spot and doing the same stuff on the x-axis.

If you want post a the background and I'll do it for you ;)

Here's the pattern. I took a screenshot.

I hope this works. It didn't last time...
