New script – Chevron

It might be fairly easy to create chevron pattern manually, but it still takes time, and in order to get something that is different each time can be a challenge.

This script will take care of that challenge by randomly picking the colors from your palette, and randomize also the thickness and the order of the lines, and also randomize the angle. In the end, you get a variety of seamless tiles you can pick from.

You can generate up to 25 different tiles in one run. And it will take just a few seconds too! Keep the tiles you like, and discard the others (nobody will know).

This is perfect to create background paper or accent elements like ribbons, borders, tags, etc.

As a sampler, this week, i thought of creating a series of tiles from a single color palette, however, I have no idea what colors you would need. So i chose to run the script using black and white and 4 other shades of grey.

The resulting tiles are obviously all greyscale and you can colorize them as you wish.

You can use those tiles as a flood fill pattern to create edges, background papers and more.
