Everyone loves finding new sites with great content, so I’ve made it a little easier. Here is a collection of new websites and blogs with quality content.

Design Resources Pack #1: The Grunge Pack, Brushes, Fonts, Textures etc…

Amazing FREE downloadable resources for your grunge designs

Welcome to the very first edition of our Design Resources Pack, the basic idea behind this is; we collect a load of resources around a certain theme or style and put them together in one place.

Grunge is a style which is often misunderstood. Grunge doesn’t always have to mean really over the top dirty and dark.
