Hello — I’m fairly new to Photoshop. I want to add one of the pattern libraries I see in the exchange. I have downloaded the .pat file — I put it in the adobe//preset//patterns folder, then closed and opened photoshop — no good. I saved the file elsewhere, went to "load pattern" in PHotoshop, selected it, restarted photoshop — still no good.

How do I add these external pattern files?

Since you placed the .pat file in the patterns folder,its’ name should be in the list of patterns below "replace patterns…" in the patterns menu after you restart Photoshop. You select your new pattern from that list.
