    Building a Free Library of Images for Everyone

    Hi everyone,

    I've been building a library of images that you are welcome to freely use in your projects. They might be useful under titles, for visual effects or anything else you can think of. They are all original...all my own work.  All I ask is to be attributed as indicated on my homepage:

    http://soundimage.org/

    The images are on my "TXR" pages (for "Textures.")

    I'm adding new ones all the time, so be sure to check back often. I sincerely hope that some of them are useful. Any and all constructive feedback is welcome and always appreciated.  :-)

    All the best,

    Eric

    Hi Eric,

    Do you plan to propose something else than textures ?

    Thanks, I appreciate it!  :)

    Hi everyone,

    I photographed a lot of cool textures last week that I'm sure could be used in all kinds of things. You'll find them here:

    http://soundimage.org/txr-brick/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-concrete/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-ground/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-metal/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-vegetation/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-wood/

    If anyone has requests for certain types of images, I'll be happy to keep my eyes open for them. Just let me know. :-)

    Have a good week,

    Eric

    Objects of "every day" in close up, for example.

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    I could certainly do those by request. Feel free to drop me an email. My email address is at the bottom of my homepage. :-)

    In the meantime...

    A whole bunch of new seamless texture images are ready for you on the following pages:

    TXR - Brick
    TXR - Concrete/Pavement
    TXR - Foliage
    TXR - Ground
    TXR - Stone
    TXR - Wood

    Feel free to generate maps from them (displacement, specular, etc) as needed. If you need me to create them custom for you, drop me an email...(my email address is at the bottom of my homepage.)

    I hope some of them are helpful!

    Hi everyone,

    I've opened a new page of free sky images that might come in handy in your projects:
    http://soundimage.org/txr-skies/

    I also added a bunch of new wood images here:
    http://soundimage.org/txr-wood/


    I hope some of them are helpful!

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    This week's new free images are on my TXR - WOOD page. At the top, I've added a bunch of smooth wood images that might come in handy for interiors. Some have dents and other signs of wear.

    If you scroll down (way down) to Seamless Textures, you'll find about 20 "fantasy wood" images...(I'm experimenting with creating different looks.)  

    Anyhow, they all live here:

    http://soundimage.org/txr-wood/

    I hope some of them are helpful!

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    Hi everyone,

    I've added about 100 new texture images. You'll find them on the following pages:

    TXR - BRICK - (some new seamless "fantasy" bricks)

    TXR - GROUND - (stones that could be used for riverbeds, railroad beds, etc.)

    TXR - METAL - (both standard and seamless)

    TXR - ROCK/STONE - (lots of cool rock textures, both standard and seamless...realistic as well as fantasy creations)

    TXR - VEGETATION - (some cool ground cover that has a surreal look)

    Enjoy!

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    Hi everyone,

    I just began a new page of cool Sci-Fi texture images. Give it a look:

    http://soundimage.org/txr-sci-fi/

    I'll be adding many more images, including skins for creatures, aliens, etc.

    Any requests?  

    Btw, I've also had folks ask about how to credit me for my images. Please simply list me and my website under "Textures" in your credits section...there's no need to identify which images are mine...unless you really want to.  :-)

    Anyhow, I think this is going to evolve into a really cool page. Hope it's helpful!

    Hi everyone,

    I've uploaded about 50 new metal texture images. Feel free to edit them as needed. You'll find them here:

    http://soundimage.org/txr-metal/

    I hope some of them are helpful!
  •  04-28-2017, 15:15 736550 in reply to 735929

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    I've just uploaded about 70 new seamless metal textures. All are 2048X2048. Some have a "camo" look and might work well for military-themed objects. Others have intriguing patterns that might look cool in fantasy-based things. And some are just plain weird looking, but what the heck...give them a look. Hopefully some of them will be helpful.

    http://soundimage.org/txr-metal/

    (Scroll down...they live toward the bottom of the page.)

    More are on the way.  :-)

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    Hi everyone,

    I've uploaded about 20 additional seamless metal texture images to finish out the set from last week. Each is 2048X2048. For anyone who's interested, they all came from a retired DC-7 aircraft. I Hope some of them will be helpful.

    http://soundimage.org/txr-metal/

    (Scroll down...they live about half way down the page.)

    Have a good weekend!

Hopefully I'll have a brand new page full of them by next week. :-)

    I just opened a new page of paper textures that might be useful for maps, backgrounds and other things:

    http://soundimage.org/txr-paper/

    As always, feel free to edit as needed. Next week I'll begin adding distressed paper textures which should (hopefully) look really cool.

    Have a great weekend! :-)

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    I've uploaded a bunch of cool new metal, stone and bark texture images, both seamless and standard.

    They are here:

    http://soundimage.org/txr-metal/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone/
    http://soundimage.org/txr-bark/

    I hope some of them are helpful.

    Btw, my Soundimage Facebook page has been giving me trouble, so I've started a personal one:

    Have a good week!  :-)

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    I've just uploaded over 100 new stone and metal texture images, standard and seamless, that I took at a couple of archaeological sites over the weekend. I think a lot of the stone textures could work well for VFX....(castles and other structures.) You'll find them here: http://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone/ http://soundimage.org/txr-metal/ Have a good week! :-)

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    Greetings!

    I've uploaded about 100 new fabric texture images on my TXR - FABRIC page. They are all seamless, 2048X2048 and ready for tiling.

    New fabric types include Leather, Rayon, Metal Linens, Dyed Acrylics and various weaves.

    They might be useful in VFX for clothes for characters, furniture coverings, carpets, or anything else you can think of.

    You'll find them here:

    Re: Re:Building a Library of Images for Everyone

    Hey, great work, and very generous!  Have you thought of doing any day trading/investing/Wall Street images?  Candlebar charts, scrolling ticker banners, things like that is what I'm thinking of.

    Thanks, I appreciate it! Wall Street type images would be hard because I'm not in an area where you see that stuff. You might want to try Pixabay, though...they have all kinds of images that you can use for free. :)

    Anyhow...

    I've uploaded a bunch of new texture images, both seamless and standard, on the following pages:

    TXR - Brick
    http://soundimage.org/txr-brick/

    TXR - Metal
    http://soundimage.org/txr-metal/

    TXR - Wood
    http://soundimage.org/txr-wood/


    If anyone happens to need a couple of distressed wooden door images, they are on my TXR - WOOD page as well. I think they look really cool. As always, feel free to edit as needed.

    Btw, fur images on on their way...stay tuned!  :-)
