If your interested in video editing,  motion graphics or 3D modelling then CGtextures is the ultimate source for amazing textures to help boost some life into your work.

You can use textures for a number of things, backgrounds for DVD menus, title sequences, lower third captions or using the patterns in the textures to generate your own unique effects.   For example the top texture of the cracked ground could be used to create a vein like pattern on the face of a 3D character.  The possibilities are endless.   All textures are completly free to download at CGtextures but it’s worth checking the “about us” page for the license information to find out more on using the textures in your work depending on how you plan to show off your work.
