UPDATE - JAN 2009:
This image is by far my most popular. I decided it would be worthwhile
to do an update. Instead of 36 images, I've researched and found 36 distinct individuals and texture sets. Hope you enjoy the new mosaic as much as the first one!

I spent about 2 hrs last night searching for textures on Flickr I could use in Photoshop for adjustment layers. Here are my favorite 36 textures, all with Creative Commons Licenses (yay for sharing).
For a veritable treasure trove of textures, I'd recommend checking
out:
kevinzim's texture set
yourbartender's texture set
Mayang's Free Texture Library
Created with fd's Flickr Toys.
3rd foundation, Brian Birke, and 827 other people added this photo to their favorites.

I really like the textures!
But how do I download them??
Jasen Robillard 26 months ago | reply
Hi Saima - click on the link to go to the texture in question, then click on the Actions button above the picture and select the "view all sizes". Once there, select the size of the image you wish to download (original is generally best) and then download via the link. Hope that helps!
