There are around 70 Gimp Subtle patterns here.
To view samples go to the original Photoshop Subtle patterns web site.

Nice resource, Odin. Something in my browser won't let me see the samples. Probably NoScript. I've gotten so I really dislike that add-on. I don't know how to "fix" it so I can see stuff it blocks.

The sample are hard to see as a list, try the thumbnail view.
Most of the patterns are, as the name says, subtle so the website doesn't do them justice. I just downloaded the bunch and checked them out in Gimp. You can always remove what you don't need. There are quite a few that seem the same until you have a second look.

These patterns look really useful.
Is there a way to download the patterns all at once?

yes, on top of the page is a button that says zip

Ah... I'll have to go back there, I didn't notice that.

Thanks Esper, got the zip!

On a pattern binge today, I snagged all of these too.

odinbc: great find, thanks odin !
