Yeah, I think so. The "Save as brush" or "Save as pattern" scripts should not only be active on a selection, they should work on an image. Since sending an image to the gbr plug-in results in a flatten operation if necessary, that's great. So there's no need for a flatten operation, and my "it should flatten if necessary" comment was superfluous :) Cheers, Dave. -- David Neary, Lyon, France E-Mail: bolsh@xxxxxxxx CV: http://dneary.free.fr/CV/
