Wow this is fabulous news!! I wish there was a texture category for scrapbooking...

What sort of things would go into a texture category for scrapbooking? Wouldn't it depend on the nature of the scrap-book?

Well referring to resources, I place existing digital scrapbooking sheets under misc textures. I guess I was just referring to a very broad sub-cat for it.

Thanks - I suppose I don't really have a good idea about what sort of textures someone doing scrapbooking might want, or how they might be different from textures used for, say, making 3d games. The new categories seem to be about what the stock images depict rather than how they are used, but maybe "paper surfaces"??

E.g. what if you used a stock of blurry droplets of water in a scrapbook? Wouldn't it go in "water" or "bokeh" rather than "scrapbooking"?

Thanks,

Liam

Yes it would.

But sometimes people create scrapbooking packs of just papers. Scrapbooking sizes printed need to be 12x12 inches (traditionally) or 8x8 inches printable. Usually at 300dpi/ppi. And they're pretty much square, so maybe a square sub-cat in textures.

Hmm, I see, probably much higher resolution than most deviantart stock too.

Thanks!

Maybe I'll think about it for my Web site too ([link]).
