Saving Patterns....

[idyne]

ok. ive made a couple of nice patterns, but saving them doesnt seem to work.
as fars as i can see there seem to be two ways to save.
1. file>save as>[name: whatever.pat] [format: .psd]> leave the popup -box checked when you hit save, and save it to your patterns area.
----or----
(before you do the above)
2. edit>fill>cust patterns>then the '>' button> save patterns> [name it] and click save.

ive tryed both ways above. but when i go .. Shift+f5> custom patterns> then '>' and load, i chose the pattern i just saves, and it says its corrupt.. WTF

this just doesnt seem to want to let me save........
are the 2 above methods right? or is there another CORRECT way to do this?
healp would be great!!

- thanks

yes, much easier way

Just on the top of your screen, go edit, define pattern.
Then when u want to use that pattern, just go to your paint bucket and the mode go to pattern and then find the one u made

Hope this helps :D
