Fade to Back

I used FMTile Tools available at http://www.fantasticmachines.com
and Texurizer filter available
here.

You will also need my mask available here.
Just move or copy to your PSP Mask folder. If you don't have a mask
folder, just create a new folder in your PSP folder called masks and
save it there.

Open your graphic and resize if necessary, I resized mine to 300 in height.  

Go to Image, Plugin Filters and find FMTile Tools, and click on Seamless Tile.

Next window that pops up, use default setting and put a check by Vertical then click Apply.

Go to Mask, Load from Disk.  Browse to your mask folder and find jdleftright.msk and double click on it.  Your image should now look something like below.

Go to Masks, Delete.  Say yes to would you like this mask merged into the current layer.   Add a Layer and move it under the background layer.  You're layer palette should look something like below.

Go to Image, Canvas Size and use the below settings.  Make sure the New Height is the same as your graphic.  

Your graphic should now look something like below.

Make sure you are one Layer 1 and flood fill with a complimentary color from your graphic.  If you want to add texture, do so now with the Texturizer filter.  It does look better with texture.
