   How To? - photoshop "tiley" textures
  How do you make those textures that look good (seamless) together when tiled, for example on a desktop or webpage background?I know that whatever runs off the bottom of the image must line up with where it comes in from the top, and likewise for left-right. But with photoshop, I dont know how to do this except for "eye-balling it" using the little ruler that appears next to the picture you are working on. This is slow and imperfect. Is there a more perfessional way to do it? 
  I can do it in Adobe ImageReady and the GIMP, but I don''t think photoshop has a tileableifier filter.  I''ve never understood that.   ;  I wrote an article exactly on this, but the site that it is on seems to be down. Google cache for it doenst work either. strange.edit: better search results will even show the article tittle and my name.

If you offset the image by half the height and width, what used to be the edges now meet in the center and can easily be fixed. As long as you don''t mess with the new edges (that used to be the center +), you''ll have a tileable image. ;  http://www.gametutorials.com/download/CodeDump/PS_Tut1_HTML.ziphttp://www.gametutorials.com/download/CodeDump/PS_Tut2_HTML.zipNo clicky for you!
