All About Patterns
Your blurry shape probably uses some kind of style/multiple colours resulting in something called a compound shape, which is too complex for seamless to handle.
You will need to find some way to reduce and flatten the shape if you want it to import properly.
Most of the 'circular gradients' you see in seamless are actually many-rayed stars/polygons, which trick the eye into perceiving them as gradients.
Can you give me the illustrator settings for -saving- the .svg? There are so many options!
SVG 1.1
Adobe CEF
There's this that I wrote a few weeks ago too, re:compound shapes:

Hi. Is there a way to upload shapes from Seamless Studio to COLOURlovers?
No; sorry. All the shapes on the site are ones people built in Seamless Lite. :)
Hi, is there a way to use shape created by others in my pattern? Thanks!
Not until the Creative Market opens. Keep an eye on the blog for details. :)

At last! An answer to the burning question in the back of my head! Hope the creative market opens up soon, there's a lot of shapes I really want to use!

Aspiring artist needing a little bit of help. How do I export my creations from inkscape to my profile? Do I need to buy the full version of Seamless studio? Or is there another way. Thank you to whoever will answer my question.
Thanks.
Michele
someone could help.?
Right now I have Inkscape, which I figured out how to get it to blur. BUT, I do have Illustrator as well and am willing to dig into that.
