Free High Res Rough Textures (Grunge)

Free High Res Rough Textures

October 29th, 2008 by Jacob Gube | 64 Comments | Stumble It! Delicious

With grunge/textured designs being popular, I thought it would be worthwhile to provide some free textures that you can use in your designs. This set consists of 15 free, high resolution rough textures (2,500px x 1,950px dimensions). I took them from rock and stone formations on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.

@Max: I’ll check that out and and these. Thanks.

@Steven Snell: Glad you like ‘em! :) I was working on a WordPress design last Sunday and I needed some gritty, rough textures. I look outside and it’s a beautiful day, so I decided to grab my camera and take some myself.

I never realized how beautiful stone is. I’m going to have to find somewhere to use these!

Jacob, these are amazing textures, thanks for sharing. I just took a bunch as well when I was at the beach/lake, maybe I should share em too. Great idea!

Thanks for sharing these great textures. It’s especially nice that they’re large enough to use for print work as well as Web.
