Design Resources

You can post your favourite websites for design resources here.

 

Textures

 

CGTextures

 

I will start with a great site for realistic textures which is CGTextures (http://cgtextures.com) which contains thousands of different surfaces and decals in very high resolutions, exhaustively sorted by categories.

 

 

The textures up to 700x700 are free, for higher sizes you have to pay a small subscription free. Probably the biggest resource for seamless textures in the internet.

 

Tools

 

Paint.NET

 

A great tool for simple image editing tasks. It's free and there are hundreds of plugins available for extending its features.

Texture Maker 3

 

Advanced texture creation and editing tool. I found the Resampler tool in this program most useful for Metin2 textures as this allows you to convert a highly detailed texture into a less detailed ("zoomed out") texture. For example you can take a single flower texture with grass background and resample it into a full field of flowers.

Thats a pretty good price for full size textures if you ask me eventhough the free ones are still good enough
