Wow--that IS a great site! Nice find!

Superb and really easy to navigate....excellent find, redrobes!

Hey guys listen to this...

I dumped about 70Mb of textures at this site and idly put in a request if anyone could get some Persian rugs for my Werthers Skull (Feb Map Challenge). I had to make up some rugs using fractals.

Well Marcel went out and photographed a whole suite of them including all the frills around the edges....

Amazing ! I wouldn't have the faintest clue where to go to even take the photos...


Edit -- Whoah check the res of these texture files out too...

More textures here.

We should really gather all these great texture sites into one post and put them into a sticky.

Well we do have this thread that is sticky: http://www.cartographersguild.com/mapping-elements/724-land-sea-fill-textures.html

You could just append this thread onto the end of that one if you wanted.

I guess, although that one was meant to be land and sea fill textures only so it didn't get flooded.

That's a good point. Perhaps we should make separate sticky threads for each category? What do you think?
