yes ok! I got this result using the simplified version...if I had half a brain I would have thought about this way myself...and its fairly adequate for what I want...Thanks guys for the input but may I suggest that a script would be nice if anyone is into doing those...I'm a bit of a numbnutz when it comes to that kind of thing.

Akky a script will speed up but i fear all the possible variation may confuse

i made 40 about seamless pattern based on that hakky image, just to test what a still hypotetical script may dore are so much possible variant, uploading now

PS

use multiply layer mode for the duplicate


where would I find this


I chose not to use multiply because your example was lighter, more pastel looking, and to reduce the transparency is very simple. You need to assign it an alpha channel before you duplicate it though. PSP has alpha channels so you should be familiar with them. Jolie just made a first rate tut about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9aZdPqs ... r_embedded

yes multiply will darken, while lowering opacity may weaken colors and contrast , this may be corrected with curve but ,in practice the color and contrast and luminosity shift may be esthetically pleasurable, and a correction not worth

it is not strictly needed add the alpha layer for merging, somehow gimp do its magic and merge well the layer also if there is not an alpha channel

BTW for merge I do NOT intend merge down
once the top layer mode is changed and opacity dosed just do
Layer/New from visible
OR Edit/copy VISIBLE + Edit/paste as/new image

that allow to save the result but also to go back to experiment with other modes o

I don't use psp at all really except to change some tubes to .png files...I cant be bothered with psp really but I do use the psp groups to get ideas from them. I am well familiar with alpha channels via GIMP. I use alpha channel on everything. I'l have a look at Jolies tut as well...thanks for all the input on this I really appreciate it. For now its bedtime for me I'll check it out in the morning.

Here are a couple plaid tutorials you can look at.

PhotoMaster's Simple Plaid Tutorial

Easy Plaid

A little later: Oh, I just found PhotoComix's treatment of your plaid.

http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?p=21733#p21733

I did a little experimenting on my own and came up with this. I filled a 1000 x 1000px image with a red, white and black pattern. Did a crop and a pixel stretch. Duplicated the layers and rotated one -45 degrees and the other 45 degrees and made the top layer 50% opacity. Used the crop tool to crop it to 700 x 700px. Merged the two layers. If you want, I will give a more detailed description about what I did.

Open your image
Image
Colors/Info/Smooth Pallet - Create your size when dialog pops up
I set mine to 200x200 and depth of 50
Image
Make sure to maximize the pallet image
Duplicate the pallet layer - select the top layer
Rotate to your liking i used 90 clockwise.
set the opacity to 50 or whatever percent you like
Results

Looks good Rod.

Don't know if Akky wants her plaid on the straight or on the bias (diagonal).

I like this and have had fun playing. I tried Rod's method of taking a picture and making it into stripes and O's idea of turning the pattern. So far I have came up with these.

http://www.mehdiplugins.com/english/weaver.htm This doesn't actually make plaid but it has a nice effect. I've used it quite a few times over the years.

I wouldn't be surprised if someone comes up with a preview style plaid maker filter. Probably Python. ;)

Actually isn't there a tartan creator scm filter?

There is a plaid maker (under patterns) from an image in Gmic now (probably wasn't in 2011)
