Flypaper Textures

Well I had intended to help out Afterimage with getting his Flypaper textures working in the Adobe Library Panel, but not sure where he went off to.

Russell Brown introduced me to Flypaper via his "Texture Paper Extension" which is no longer around. I did like the craft that went into the samples so I bought several of their packs over the years. Sometimes I would wait for a sale and get them for $35 or less. 

I appreciate that War Unicorn had made his textures free along with a tutorial, so it's a win that it helps out others.

As for Flypaper, I personally don't think of them as "pricey".  To this day, I  think they are well worth what I paid, even though I don't use textures a much as I used to.  But  they have  changed their offerings, so head over to https://flypapertextures.com/ if you'd like to know more.

I haven't heard much from Russell Brown since he went to Adobe.  How's he doing?

Our James @War Unicorn has a nice collection of freely available textures.  They used to be linked from ProDesignTools but that took you to a thread in this forum.  I love it when we share content this way, and the Flypaper Textures are really pricey at $40 a set.

Thanks James.  You are a star.

I'm not sure, but I have Flypaper collections in my Libraries and they show full resolution. Make sure you are adding the high-resolution files.  I will do this from the Libraries Panel in Photoshop.

First Create and name the collection, then double-click on the title to add the files.

Next navigate to the folder where you have your textures. You may have a folder of low-res textures, but I don't and it's an easy thing to select all of them and drag them into the empty "add files" space. So find the hi-res textures, select and drag them in. Depending on your connection, it might take a while to get them all in. Delete the old low-res library.
