      Does it matter if you use photoshop or gimp or could I use another software?

      Shortly after the first release of the Pattern Packager Syera and I pioneered creating four-channel patterns using Paint Shop Pro 9 and I set about to writing a tutorial for that. You can find it under the Tutorials section at BogSims Institute.

      Thank you so much! I have updated my topic with your tutorial link in p.6.

      Happy creating!

      .... Huh? I just read this entire thing and I'm so confused. Can someone write a "for dummies" guide on creating custom patterns for those of us who are tech challenged?

      Hello voshana! I have listed the most simple and available tutorials. You have to download DDS utilities and paint programs to work with. Please go through every tutorial and hopefully one of them would be the most understandable for you. This is only a guide.
      Happy simming!
