Rough metallic surface
I wanted to
make a rough metallic surface and I ended up with this by
fiddling
around with a back-to-white gradient and emboss it. I finally
got a clean
200x200 image that alings seamlessy and can be used as a
pattern:

(You can
make it golden by colorify with yellow.)
Are there
any other strateiges for making a rough metallic surface?
(Feel free
to use this pattern if you like it.)
You might
use a bump map. Open a suitable image, plenty if you search google images, in
your case perhaps part of a larger image as a base. Then in your new image it
is filters -> map -> bumpmap and point at the 'rusted' image.
You get an
effect like this. http://i.imgur.com/73HYK.jpg
Since you
are aiming at a small image for a tilable pattern, then its filters -> map
-> make tilable.
