Thank you, and i didn't and I don't claim rights to any of tuts, i just simply link to them (which i think is cool since i came across most of them via stumble button). Prob is i can't ask authors for permission since there are so many.  ToT They helped me a lot, so i thought i could share them with other people.
I ll try to find some extra textures and patterns links =)

Offtopic:
Also ivan, I made a bunch of sigs but none is good enough to be your gift :/ Just wanted to let you know i am working on it. Can send you my current fails.

haha yay, then I'll have a huge collection of gifts!

I know you don't claim them as your tutorials, but I was thinking off asking for some tutorials and post the tuts in q/a section and then you could add the links here.

Yeah, aware of it. Wanted to focus off sigs a bit more.

Still doesnt change the fact that this is a tutorial thread and belongs in the tut section.  Everyone bitches about requesters being here

Everyone = AWER

I don't really care, I am trying to help them, no one will even try their request, that's why we lead them to the right section.

We don't bitch about this topic because we think it fit's in well here and more people will come across it.
