I'm not sure what the "corner effect" you referred to is, but the seamless option seems to work fine. Although when I experimented with a textual image, it scattered the text all over the image with different opacities - weird.
Your second option seems too complex for a newbie like me, and I'm not very clear on what the difference between evening and tiling is. But anyway, thanks for pointing me to the seamless option! > >You could do Filters>Map>Make seamless on your plasma, tho this tends to create a "corner effect". Another possibility would be to use the layer offset (Layer>Transform>Offset and click the button that says X2/Y2)), then carefully add some new plasma with a custom feathered selection over the resulting "cross tile" in the center, then doing the layer offset again to "put everything back" where it was. > >There is also something I came across long ago, can't remember where, about creating a "high pass" filter effect that tended to "even out" the relative exposure of tiled textures, this wasn't about making them tile, but mitigating the obviousness of the fact that they were tiled, makeing them appear smoother and more uniform. > > >--- On Sat, 4/25/09, Chris <for...@gimpusers.com> wrote: > >> From: Chris <for...@gimpusers.com> >> Subject: [Gimp-user] Tilable Plasma? >> To: gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU >> Date: Saturday, April 25, 2009, 1:23 PM >> I managed to make parchment (with help from a tutorial) by >> overlaying >> grayscale plasma on a tan background.
