Painting

Do one of the following:

•

To create a pattern from part of the image, make a rectangular selection with Feather set to 0 pixels. 

•

To create a pattern from the entire image, deselect everything.

Choose Edit  > Define Pattern.

Enter a name for the pattern in the Pattern Name dialog box.

To deselect the original selection, choose Select  > Deselect.

Each preset file in the PostScript Patterns folder contains a single pattern in the Adobe Illustrator format. You can scale 
these patterns at any resolution.

Choose File

  > Open. 

Navigate to Adobe Photoshop Elements

  8.0/Presets/Patterns/PostScript Patterns.

Select the pattern file you want to use, and click Open.

When the Rasterize Generic EPS Format dialog opens, click OK to proceed.

Choose Select  > All, or make a rectangular selection around the pattern with Feather set to 0 pixels in the options bar.

Choose Edit  > Define Pattern From Selection. The pattern is defined as an Adobe Photoshop

  Elements pattern.

Enter a name for the pattern in the Pattern Name dialog box, and click OK.

You fill an area with a gradient by dragging within the image or by selecting with the Gradient tool. The distance 
between the starting point (where you first press and the mouse button) and ending point (where you release the 
mouse button) affects the gradient appearance, as does the gradient type.
