The Strip
These background tiles may be saved individually, or they may be downloaded in the zip file. If you download the zip file, the *.smp file is included so that you can easily import all of the files into your fill gallery at once.  A read me file is also included in the zip file.  Please read it before attempting to import these files.  If you wish to use these tiles as backgrounds for your web pages, please link back to this site.

I have created each of these tiles as a 100 X 100 square.  If you intend to use them where the joint will be evident, such as in a stationery strip, resize the piece to a multiple of 100 such as 200 , 300, or 400 etc. before filling it with the tile. This will ensure a seamless strip.  To fill your strip with a tile, just open your easy palette, and find the tile you wish to use, and then double click the tile.  This will fill your strip.
