1. Open up your image in PSP, make a copy of it (Shift+D), and close the original. That way you have your image in case you want to use it again.

2. Image/Resize 300w x 300h. Effects/Sharpen/Sharpen.

3. Effects/Plugin Filters/DC Special/Melt with settings as shown below:

4. Image/Flip. Effects/Plugin Filters/DC Special/Melt with settings as shown below:

5. Effects/Plugin Filters/VM Distortion/FlipChop with settings as shown below:

6. Effects/PluginFilters/VM Distortion/Mosaic Ripple with settings as shown below:

7. Effects/PluginFilters/VM Distortion/Kaleidoscope with settings as shown below:

9. Image/Crop to Selection. Image/Resize in increments of 85% to desire size. I resized mine twice making my tile 209w x 209h. Be sure to go to Effects/Sharpen/Sharpen each time after you resize. Also, when you resize, make sure that "maintain aspect ratio is checked". Save as a .jpg and your tile is ready to use. The background for this webpage was made using this tutorial. I used the same setting on all filters except the Kaleidoscope, where I change the divisions to 194 and the rotations to 216.
