I've added about 50 new paper textures derived mostly from old book covers, but there are also some distressed blank pages. They are on my TXR - Paper page:

Hope some of them are helpful!

Awesome! How do you source things to photograph? Do you go to places to specifically source textures and bring gear with you for that purpose or do you just kinda chance upon them and use a phone or whatever you have with you? Are these from a museum or junkyard or construction site or where do you go? Any tips for photographing/lighting/editing textures? Googled it, most sites are pretty vague.

Hey there, I'm trying to get into the habit of taking my DSLR with me where ever I go and to always be on the lookout for cool textures. For images intended to be used as textures, it helps to shoot in overcast weather so that there are no shadows and the images are lit evenly. On sunny days, I try to shoot on the shadow side of objects for the same reason. Sometimes I see cool textures that are side lit and have shadows so I just shoot them and figure maybe someone can use them as, say, a still image for a website. Anyhow, feel free to email me anytime and I'll be happy to help. My email address is at the bottom of my homepage. :)

Happy New Year Everyone!

In case you haven't already noticed, I've tried to improve navigation on my site by creating a categorized menu of links to all my pages on the right-hand side of each page. (If you don't immediately see it, scroll down a bit.) I hope it's helpful!

That said, I've uploaded about 40 new free images on the following pages:

TXR - GROUND
http://soundimage.org/txr-ground/

TXR - ROCK/STONE 2
http://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone-2/

TXR - WOOD
http://soundimage.org/txr-wood/


Have a good week!
