So it has been quiet here for a while; not without reason - I recently acquired Royalty Free Images.net . To jump start that new site, lets apply the same mode as here: I´m posting sets of free royalty-free stock images for download. The first photos are already on there, so have a look when [...]
Time for some new photos… I´ve posted rust metal and grunge textures here before, and it seems, they are always well liked.
Download these royalty-free photos for free and use them wherever you want in your designs, but please don´t re-distribute the pictures (RF does not mean copyright-free; you can use the image source links here, [...]
Visits to old luxury houses on hot summer days can be fruitful from a photographic point of view, and provide some nice additions to a texture library, so here are two royalty-free photos of ornate wallpapers. Layer these vintage damask wallpapers in Photoshop with some of the grunge textures posted here before, and you will [...]
I spent a visit to some hidden, abandoned houses the last days, and beside a lung full of fresh air I brought a memory card full of photographs with me, of which I will make the one or the other available here as free royalty-free images, the first set of textures featuring pretty handmade bricks.

The previously posted rust metal backgrounds and grunge textures became quite popular, so assuming that you designers need this sort of stuff, here are some more free royalty-free images of that kind:

Or [...]
As this web site is not just about stock textures but free royalty-free images in general, today I picked some still-life photos of books. Actually, properly cropped they are easily usable as backgrounds (and the third looks even good as a desktop background). The books in these photos are quite old, btw., which makes their [...]
They may seem a bit strange, but as I have a fancy for old, weathered wood, and spend a good amount of time in alpine landscapes photographing it, and as some of that makes interesting backgrounds and textures, I thought I will prepare another set of royalty-free stock photos (and let people download them for [...]
Mediterranean markets are usually full of delicious things, and if one does food photography and has a decent kitchen to mess around in, too, it makes for an inspiring source of colorful textures and abstract backgrounds. So I decided to select some pictures of dried fruits as free royalty-free images and post them here for [...]
Today a set of royalty-free food stock photos. Because this web site is slow to load with all these images on the front page, but I don´t want to change the layout, I will split certain themes with lots of pictures into several posts in future (so come back the next days to download more).
