What version of Photoshop and operating system are you using?

How are you resizing the pattern?

Can you provide screenshots to show the before and after?

I'm sure I'm using the latest photoshop version. I've attached some screenshots here.

I've gone onto google to help me solve this problem and its told me to use new fill layer and pattern fill.

I'm just really confused.

If you go to Layer > New Fill Layer > Pattern, you get this dialog:

And when you click OK, you get a dialog that allows you to scale and rotate the pattern:

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
