Super Grunge Vintage Textures Release April 23 :)

JD Textures, Super Grunge VINTAGE Texture Collection has released! I'm very excited and frankly, a wee bit exhausted too. The Super Grunge concept developed for me after a year of using Illuminations. I loved what they did, but I felt I needed to explore some different ideas and processing. If the Illuminations Sets were about opening up images to discovering new light and color, then Super-Grunge was it's alter ego, standing in the shadows feeling sentimental, moody and introspective. In fact, I got so involved making the pack that Super Grunge evolved into 2 packs - one Vintage, one Urban (Super Grunge URBAN releases June 4). Additionally, I loved the prospect of sharing some non-textured designs such as 3 Vintage Grunge Frames and 3 Vintage Grunge Brushes which, along with 3 Vintage Grunge Vignettes and a tutorial are included in this new pack.



Techinical Notes:

• Texture files work with all versions of Elements, Photoshop, and GIMP (a free editing program, click here to check it out).  This product is not compatible with Lightroom.

• The PDF tutorial included with the textures only specifically addresses Photoshop users.

• For tutorials demonstrating Elements, GIMP and Photoshop, please see my Video Tutorials section.

• All texture files are high-resolution jpegs sized at 40 x 60 inches at 72 dpi. This translates to 14.4 x 9.6 inches at 300 dpi or 4320 x 2880 pixels. As I former graphic designer and art director in charge of producing printed boxes and advertisements, I am extremely picky about resolution and detail. I personally have used these textures to print on large (40 x 60") canvas with no issues with dpi resolution.

• Payment is required via Paypal or a credit card. Once your payment clears, you will receive an email with a link where you can download your textures. Due to the nature of this digital product, all sales are final.

• The files come compressed in .zip format and must be unzipped to work. There are many free unzip programs for both Mac & Windows that will allow you to expand the files once they've been downloaded.

3) You must use these textures integrated with your own artwork and photography -- ie. do not post them as they currently appear to Flickr, etc., unintegrated with your art as this would make them easy to steal.
