BINGO! Thanks Blighty and Rich2005. Rich, you nailed it. I had to right-click to get access. I exported as both .jpg and .pat (with a new name). Problem solved. So happy it's easy to make patterns now. That Tile Seamless filter is amazing. I may yet become a GIMP master. :-)
BTW, changing the folder view to show hidden files is one of the first things I do on a new computer, so I had no idea that this did not carry through to all apps.
Glad to know the other file formats work, since I already have a slew of patterns from Photoshop and Corel that are .png or .jpg. I'm relieved that I don't have to convert them.
