Hi everyone,

I am attempting to reproduce this background on a larger scale.

http://www.geocities.com/yu217171/pattern.jpg

My final output will be on a 22" x 28" poster @ 300dpi (CMYK).
This effect is created using a filter but even though I have 1.5GB of RAM, it is insufficient to run the filter.

What would be the best way to recreate it then at 22x28?

Thanks in advance,

Keith

what u need to do is finally trace it in PS.
so here the procedure:
1) open image
2) choose (alt i i) or open image properties
3) resize ur inage to desired size n save
4) trace the image with polygon laso tool (L)
5) fill the same color.
n dont export it just burn psd file for printing. Angel

I once had to make booth graphics for the company I works for.

The specs to make the file was half scale 300 dpi, so I was working with three separate 2 foot by 4 foot files. Let me tell you that was a pain...
