A note before we start. I would like to take this opportunity to say, my tutorials are nothing more than guides.
Let your own creativity come alive and never be afraid to change your mind.
That's what the delete and undo buttons are for!.....LOL
I also encourage you to choose your own colors and or patterns.


Now let's get started and have some fun!

Please remember to save often if your PSP locks up on a regular basis!

    1. Open a new image 100 X 100 Transparent Background
    2. Flood fill with the color #1B0A72.
    3. Add a new layer and flood fill with the color #DD2A01.
    4. Image/Rotate (Ctrl+R) 45 degrees, (Right or Left, it don't matter here) this layer only.
    5. Merge Layers Visible.
    6. Apply Effects/Blur/Motion Blur/ Angle 180 and Pixels 40.
    7. Apply Simple Diamond filter.
    8. Apply Flaming Pear's Ornament filter.
    9. Apply Simple's Quick Tile Filter.
    10. Apply Effects/Artistic Effects/Glowing Edges using these settings:
  • INTENSITY : 2
  • SHARPNESS : 0
    11. Now to test it, open a new image (Ctrl+N) 400 X 400 or what ever size and and set your background pattern to your newly made tile and flood fill it.
    12. I hope you enjoyed this quick background tut and learned that you can use a filter other than it was originally created to do.
    HINT: Use Colors/Colorize ( Shift+L) to color your tile if you wish.
