I have been messing around today making these brushes and thought i would post them incase someone else finds them useful
they where made in cs2 so not sure if they will work in older versions ( sorry)

This action is made from a tutorial by Corey Barker
seen here

It works on quite a few different images it just needs the odd bit of tinkering ( mainly colour etc )

All that i have done is made it into a action this is all Corey's workflow

I hope it is of some use to someone and that you enjoy the use of the action!

over the past week i have been messing around making some textures and here are a few

If you wish to use them in conjunction with the texturizer filter you will need to save them as psd's

and dont forget you can also colourize them using the hue/saturation filter for a different look

have fun

Palms

hope they are of use to you

dont forget you can alter the colour
by (in ps) picking the colour you want with the colour picker then

image> adjustment > hue/saturation
check the colorize box
then alter lightness saturation to your taste

Here are some backgrounds that i made instead of making a different one each image
hope they are of some use to someone
