Building a Library of Images for Everyone

Post by Eric Matyas »

Hi everyone,

I've been building a library of images that you are welcome to use in your projects. They are all original...all my own work. I think a lot of them could be made into cool textures for games. All I ask is to be attributed as indicated on my homepage:

http://soundimage.org/

The images are on my "TXR" pages.

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

No, it's some custom version of CC-BY (attribution)

tl;dr, but it's there:

Personally, as it's not cc0 or some simple to understand art license, I would shy away from it.

My license is identical to "CC by" with one simple exception: I prohibit my work from being used in anything obscene.

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!

What do you find as obscene?

"An obscenity is any utterance or act that strongly offends the prevalent morality of the time."

There are likely many of us here that live in a different culture and hence have different morals. It would be excellent if you could explicitly define what you consider as obscene.

From my homepage:

Prohibited Uses

The use of my music or images in any media that violates Youtube community standards is prohibited. In other words, you can’t use my music in obscene material.

I hope that clarifies things. :-)

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!


Eric
