Some notes:
[o] No other resources were used in the making of these textures. All I used were my (lame) photography, brushes and also Adobe PS' line tool.
[o] Supposedly, better textures are to come after this. >.>;;

Hi - I particularly like the green textures, the way you've incorporated the lines and text, so I've saved several of them. It's a cool challenge, isn't it!

AHAHA, I am a big dork. I so screened the comments because someone found the entry and I was shocked and I thought it was a disqualification or something. XD;; Thank you so much, that's so great to know! It means there's still hope for me. XD;; It's a very cool challenge! I am checking the stuff out now and man, the others are so great! O.O

You and I share the same opinion. XD That was the set I did after I went, "*observes* Oh so that's how you make a texture set!" and was enlightened. XD;;

The blue is pretty, but I just adore the green one. All those shades from deep foresty to bright lime are just.. perfect ♥ ^o^

You learned really fast! Very good for a beginner. I never made any before, either, I hope there will be tutorials, I could use some.

We could use some, lol. I never really trust tutorials, but for once, I'm going to be bookmarking texture-tuts if they ever are around. XD;;

Like, brushes?

!! They're quite simple! :D Don't worry, when textures first came out, I was like, "wtf, cannot brush?!?" XD

Say you're making an icon, you basically open your base image and one of these textures for usage. As soon as you've placed your base image in a 100x100 canvas and adjusted it to your liking, you then click and drag the texture towards the same canvas and then hit Layer -> Layer Style -> Blending Options where you'll see a drop down box with 'Normal' selected. Then you can just play with the blending options to see which one blends nicely with the image. XD

I can make a more comprehensible tutorial if you like. >.>;;
