It started when a user named Noatry smartly inferred that it would be possible to make a seamless glass pack using the same techniques I used in my looping logs pack.
#Seamless texture free
Man-made, repeating patterns such as wallpaper and fabric will take a little more fine-tuning on your part, but it’s not super difficult.It's been widely requested, the optifine free seamless glass pack! If your original sample texture is an organic texture (paper, grass, marble, etc), almost any blend of around 10% should work fine. Begin gradually sliding the horizontal blend settings and the hard-edged vertical seam should start to evaporate before your eyes. This will move the hard-edged seams to the center of the canvas, making them much easier to work with. Frankly, the default settings aren’t very useful, so reset the horizontal and vertical blends to zero and the horizontal and vertical offset to 50%.
Select the Seamless effect and you’ll see its properties displayed in the panel on the right. You should now have a nice daisy-chain of Resource to Seamless to Canvas. Follow the same process to connect the Seamless effect to the Canvas. Just drag a connecting arm from the tiny handle on the bottom edge of our sample and the handle on the top edge of the Seamless effect tile. If you positioned the seamless effect just right, they may have wired themselves together automatically. We need to ‘wire’ these elements together. What if you could make a quality seamless tile without installing anything, or even leaving your browser? Read on.Ĭonnect your resource, effect and canvas together There are some paid Photoshop plugins and some raw, homemade apps out there, but I have to say nothing impressed me. If you see a regular use for these tools, they are great, but arguably overkill for us. There are some excellent commercial seamless tiling tools that are primarily aimed at game developers and 3D modellers ( Genetica, Pattern Studio and PhotoSEAM are good examples). Now there is no argument: this gives you a good result but it does require some work and, when complex patterns are involved, often some considerable skill. The most common method to produce seamless tiles involves using Photoshop’s offset filter to move the joins to inside the image area, and then to manually retouch the joins with either the healing brush or clone tool. However most of the time you’re going to want your image swatch to tile without visible edges or seams. Now that all the current browsers (IE9, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Safari) are finally supporting the use of multiple backgrounds on a single element, there seem to be some great opportunities to weave different sized tiles together in new and interesting ways. Looking forward, we’re only likely to see more tiling backgrounds. Ok, that may have been a conceptual stretch, but I watch a lot of Discovery channel. Sure, they can be ugly and scary as hell but, like crocodiles, they’ve stuck around a long time because they work. 
They first evolved in the ‘Jurassic’ period of the web, outlasting dinosaurs like table-based layouts and font tags. Tiling backgrounds are like the crocodiles of the web design world. Depending on your vintage, you may have flashbacks to MySpace, Angelfire or even the recently-departed Geocities, but it got me thinking. interesting and arguably ironic use of tiled backgrounds. Last week someone pointed me to the Yale University School of Art and their. Somewhat ol' school approach to tiled backgrounds
