Free Textures For Designers and Photographers

Hello,

I have a collection of free textures available on my DeviantArt account.

Find all of them here:



If you like you can download them and use them in your creative work. Would be nice if you link back to me, if possible.

I will be adding more in the following days/weeks.

 -->  Emerald Scratch Download

Please use this texture in blend mode SCREEN or LIGHTEN in Photoshop.

Thanks.
If you have questions, please comment on this post!
