This is just a program I cooked up the other day in about 10 mintues for use with my game. It's very simple, it just takes an images and saves a version of the image that will tile seamlessly. You'll find that with many images you can get a kalidescope type effect. In minor cases that can be fixed by a little editing in the image editor of your choice. When I get time I might make it so that it will fix that itself, but for now I thought that I'd just throw it out here for anybody who finds it useful.

I couldn't get it to work. I swear I spelled the image correctly, but it didn't do anything. Can you make a version where you drag the image onto the exe? It would make it so much easier.

I doubt that's the problem. Is the image in the same directory, of course? What exactly happens after you type it?

EDIT: And drag and drop the file onto the program? You're sure that's possible?

@ThinkDigital: When you drag a file onto the program, it's the same as passing the filename through the commandline, so you can use cl$ to get the filename

Okay, I've updated it. You should now be able to find the output file, and you can drag and drop a file onto the EXE.

Doesn't work for me, I'm consistently told that the source image doesn't exist.

Baiame - is the source image in the same directory as the EXE?

Well, it was when I tested it before, but now I've tried source images in other directories and the same error occurs.
