1. PREPARE IMAGES

Locate the Rose and Sydney Harbour images
Duplicate them and close the originals.
Work with the Rose first - so minimize Sydney Harbour

Resize the Rose by 50%
Duplicate the Rose 4 times (5 in all) and minimize 4 of them


2. SEAMLESS TILE - ROSE

Go to the Seamless Tile icon on your toolbar OR Effects > Image Effects > Seamless Tiling
Click on the Icon
When the Seamless Tiling Window opens
Click the Preview on Image box in the top right & Click on the Default Button on the right of the window
and see the result on your rose image


This is the result on your rose image


Change the Corner Style to Curved and you will see a very subtle change.

3. SEAMLESS TILE - SYDNEY

Bring up the Sydney Harbour Image
Resize by 20% & Sharpen
Duplicate Twice = 3 images
Minimize 2 of them

Click on Seamless tiling and click the Default to start with this image
Click on Mirror - you get a reflection image
Change the Direction to Horizontal
Click OK
Resize by 50% & Sharpen - keep this image for the moment


Bring up another image of Sydney Harbour
Change the Tiling method to Edge
Try the width on 100, 50 & 0 to see which you prefer
Click OK
Resize by 50% & Sharpen - keep this image for the moment


Now choose one of the images of Sydney you have seamlessly tiled on the sides and place it on a wide image 800 x 145 to show it is tiling properly
I chose 145 as that is half the height of the image, because I scaled it to 50% ( Angel =0 & Scale = 50)
