For all of you out there who are too lazy to make/google textures:
List of links to websites containing textures for use in maps. Devided into catagories based upon possible usage.
Sites can always be googled, but of course alot of junk turns up, and this page is an attempt to sort through that, and list sites known from experiance.
WARNING:[edit]
REMEMBER: If you want to use any of these textures in your map, check the website's policy on using and distributing them. Using the textures in your map, and then putting your map up for download on FileFront or another website COUNTS AS DISTRIBUTION.
- Some websites will let you use and distribute the textures however you wish.
- Some will let you use/distribute the textures so long as you do not do so for a commercial purpose, i.e. sell them.
- Some websites will let you do the above so long as you indicate the source/creator of your texture in the distribution medium, i.e. your map. This means you should cite your sources in your readme.
- If the provided info about the texture contains a name, most likely the name belongs to the texture's creator. You should give them credit in your readme.
Websites that sell textures are more leniant with thier distribution policies.
Always read the website's policy for distributing there textures, and give credit where credit is due.

EricBlade: Bob, you seem very excited about these shader thingees. Care to write up a tutorial for those of us who know nothing about them?
Bob_The_Beheader: Sorry I meant materials. see Creating_A_Material.
EricBlade: OK, how about something specific on what all these technical terms are? :D
