You will need PSP 6 or 7, the Fantastic Machines Paint Engine filter which you can download at fantasticmachines.com, and the image used in the tutorial which you can download here Tut Image. I want to thank Barbara for sending this in during the Wed Wet sharing at Flybynight, and you will need 20/20 which you can download at byLight Technologies. I also want to say that I was inspired to do this tutorial after doing KiwiNessie's Simple Background Tutorial which you can go check out here. Boy did that tutorial come in handy, cause I was in a creative block which I didn't know how to come out of but that tutorial got me inspired and I starting making things again.

4. Effects: Plugin Filters: Paint Engine, using the following settings apply Fantastic Machines Paint Engine Filter Setting Impression Oil:

5. Ok save your image as a jpg and open in 20/20.

6. Image: Seamless Tile.

7. Save your image. You are now finished. :) I hope you liked this tutorial :)
