Knowledgebase Talk:Image and Texture Resources

This section is entirely done too, here are suggested modifications to some of its links:

3D Texture Libraries and Backgrounds from TextureWorld should be removed as it was a commercial texture selling site and its archive shows no reachable samples: http://web.archive.org/web/20080702135359/www.textureworld.com/Texture_Libraries/Store/

Area map search form can be updated to: http://geonames.usgs.gov/

Astronomical Data Center: http://web.archive.org/web/20080711094635/http://adc.gsfc.nasa.gov/ A more current home for it may exist here: http://www.astro.umd.edu/

Download Planet Earth (Geocities) http://web.archive.org/web/20071020020017/http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/1658/earth.html

Iain's Textures: http://web.archive.org/web/20080504160112/http://www.ecn.net.au/~iain/htextures/intro.html

Nebulae Page is now located here: http://astro.nineplanets.org/twn/

The search for previous link lead me to this other page which probably could be added as a ressource: http://gallery.seds.org/main.php

NTMY'sDigital home exists in the archive but links to the Pov texture include file NTMYTexLib.inc is broken at any date so link can probably be deleted.

Public Textures: http://web.archive.org/web/20060219050556/http://www.art.net/~jeremy/photo/public_texture_frameset.html more up to date (current) portfolio of the owner of the author: http://www.photographyblog.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=1065

Put your 3D images on photographic prints No longer brings to "ofoto.com" (redirection) but Kodak who probably bought it and still provide the same service

TextureLand ! http://web.archive.org/web/20060823000947/http://sunhe.jinr.dubna.su/textbin/normal/textures.pl

Texture Shoppe http://web.archive.org/web/20060403010210/http://fortunecity.com/victorian/abbey/78/texindex.html The files are in a format needing this other old ressource Texture Magic: http://web.archive.org/web/19990116231435/http://www.eskimo.com/~scott/povtext.html Here's a mirror still valid today where to download it: http://www.programmersheaven.com/download/2006/download.aspx

Texture Studio http://web.archive.org/web/20071110230039/studio.planethalflife.gamespy.com/textures.asp but I'm not sure files are any longer reachable from there

Dreamsandmagic textures can be found here: http://web.archive.org/web/20001205185700/www.dreamsandmagic.com/freebies.htm

and a few free samples of the later commercial product here: http://web.archive.org/web/20030622175051/dreamsandmagic.com/cd2.htm

PBourke's Textures Archive seems to still be online and located here: http://local.wasp.uwa.edu.au/~pbourke/texture_colour/
