Today we have some fresh new textures for you to improve your designs with. Textures are always interesting because of how deeply yet subtly they can transform a design. A good texture isn’t too busy or distracting, but adds an element that you can’t achieve with flat color. Play around with these textures and see what they can do for you.

The term “grunge” within graphic design is often mistaken to mean dirty; however, a grunge look is simply one that is achieved by including natural elements into your design. For instance, you may create typography from vine images or your background could be a photo of cement. Some websites even use every day items, such as paper towels, to create backgrounds and texture within the design. Incorporating grunge into your website can be obvious with lots of dirt and grime or subtle with only a fabric background. So, whatever level of grunge you intend to take your website, one of the following backgrounds may be exactly what you need to help you achieve the perfect amount of grunge in your project.

Also, I don’t discriminate against certain types of textures here – we have all types from glass, metal, brick, grunge, and super grunge to some really unique vintage wallpaper and damask stuff. All of these are free to use, but please read the specific usage rights on each website. Enjoy, and happy designing to you and yours.
