 * '''Good Angle :''' Remember to take your screenshots at an angle that shows off what you've made. For walls, screenshots taken from a "sim's eye view" generally work best, while pictures taken from a higher angle or "player's eye view" work well for floors. Remember, you can always take multiple pictures to show your item from different angles.

-[[Image:Patternpreview-sailfindragon.jpg|right|300px|Perfect pattern picture by [http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=504590 Sailfindragon].]]Take some nice big (600 pixels or more on the smallest side is a good size to aim for), clear pictures of your patterns. Your pictures should be taken in-game (not in Create-a-Pattern or TSR Workshop, and not in Create-a-Sim either), indoors, and in a well-lit room.

−	* '''No photoshopping:''' Do not apply filters like sharpen, contrast, etc. to the required pictures, as downloaders want to see what your pattern(s) will look like in their game, not your skills at using Photoshop.

 |Large patterns and/or images that dominate one whole tile rarely look good on anything else other than walls. Meaning, it generally won't tile nicely on clothing and furniture. When ever possible, please add multiple versions of your pattern with varying tiling sizes, so that the downloaders can have a variety of sizes to choose from. Thereby, making your patterns more versatile for CAST.
