I just visited the site to respond to some forum topics and noticed texturemate has 300 users! Not bad for a 'free design resource' community, now let's shoot for 1000!
Well, after a little downtime, texturemate is on a new dedicated server! The site's traffic has significantly increased lately and the host said it has to be upgraded immediately. I hope you notice that the site should be much faster! The upgraded hosting is a bit pricier but I think the ads on the site can cover it. I want to do what I can to keep texturemate a repository for free textures, free brushes, free patterns, free.... anything design related!
Hello, I am designR ;) I am a professional graphic artist and there can always use more brushes, patterns, and design resources. Therefore I love texturemate because everything is free! Awesome! In return, got any design questions? I can answer them! I am sure of that ;)
It's in it's infancy and still has a lot of polishing to do, but texturemate now has Forums. I figured that since we already have over 100 texturemate members, we should probably have a place for discussions and questions. Let me know if you have any feedback or suggestions!
Wow, texturemate already has over 1,000 Facebook Fans and 100 site users! I happened to notice this when uploading a new brush set today. Very cool! At this point, site users can submit links to their own websites or resources, submit their own guest resources, or ask design questions that I will try to answer. Thanks to everyone for the support!
Texturemate now has a blog view if you prefer just seeing the latest graphic design resources and tutorials in the order they are posted! I created this page due to some reader feedback where people wanted to see what the newest resource was, regardless of what it is! The blog view will update whenever a brush set, pattern set, texture pack, or article is posted. Let me know how you like it!
Texturemate is now at 2100 textures, which is great for only being around a couple months. I have started to add patterns as well for Adobe Photoshop and Gimp that I hope you enjoy!

My name is Bill Scott; I'm an Electrical Engineer who dabbles as a photographer, graphic artist, web designer, and 3d modeler in my spare time. I created texturemate as my portal to share my own texture images, stock photographs, brushes and other resources I create with others online. I hope you enjoy!
