Royalty Free Wood Textures
Wood is often a great choice for a background. It’s natural. Down-to-earth. Homey.
When you are looking to convey a sense of reality, of being in tune with nature, wood patterns are a great choice. And we have a gallery of royalty free wood textures for you to use.
When we first launched Free Media Goo almost 20 years ago, there weren’t any completely-free-to-use pictures available. We set about rectifying that. Some of these pictures are from when we first started out, while others have been added throughout the years. All of these photos are free to use without attribution – though feel free to cite us if you’d like to.
At some point, we might launch a gallery of photos that are free to use but require attribution. We’ve resisted this because we don’t want to complicate matters for our users, but it does limit the amount of photos we can offer up to you for use. For now, we’ve decided we’ll just link out to other sources that provide attribution-required citations. If you do use work from the following sources, make sure you abide by their license terms.
