In the process of updating the look of this blog I have read many blogs on website design, development, and Photoshop brushes/patterns/textures/etc. And in doing so I have expanded my knowledge and library of sources greatly. I hope to add some of these sites to my blog roll soon so that others can check them out. I feel that I should be more active as opposed to just a scavenger taking what I want and not giving anything back. As such I feel that with my limited skills I will start with something easy. The first I will be releasing will be texture packs of Hawaiian sand. Wont be big though maybe 5 or 6 textures. I plan to release these as a freebie as I understand the pains of being a student with low-income and how helpful the free stuff as been to me. I will post them in a .zip file containing both the textures as individual JPG files and a .pat file for Photoshop. These will be released under the creative commons license with free use, no need to attribute them to me but may not be rereleased/repackaged, and as always share and share alike.

I plan for in the first sand pack to be:

Waikiki
Lanikai
Kailua Bay
Ala Moana Beach
Makapuu

Stay tuned!
