Ok.. I would like to change this image.

I would like to replace all the blue with this

I am using Macromedia Fireworks, and I am not sure how to select the blue, and then fill it with the second image.. Can anyone help me by doing it, or teach me how???

thanks!

here ya go

I've not used fireworks, but in photoshop, I did a select->color range and tweaked for the blue. I used the polygonal lasso to clean up the selection. I defined the pattern, did a fill->from pattern. I then selected the small faded portion and did a hue/saturation->colorize to get rid of the blue hue that remained from the partial transparency. To obtain the hue, I used the eyedropper on a lighter box of the pattern.

The biggest problem here is that the pattern you provided was not correctly matched, and would generate a secondary pattern when tiled.

I took the initial pattern, and rotated and cropped it so that it would align somewhat properly. To correct for density variations, I made a duplicate layer at 50% opacity and flipped horizontally. I repeated this process vertically.

Because the pattern could not be easily cropped in such a way that it would tile without creating a secondary pattern, I made several duplicate layers, expanded the canvas size, and manually lined up the layers to create a larger swatch without secondary patterning. The file I created was then used to set the pattern used above. I've uploaded the pattern so that you can continue to play with it if you like. I did not check the edges to see if they would tile, so if you have a larger space to fill, you may need to repeat some of the above steps until you have a suitable sized swatch.

Looks like I am slow on the draw again.

I used another method so it looks a little different.
