I'm starting a thread which exclusively deals with Backgrounds.

There are already many on this forum (scattered along with headline images). But, it's a good idea to devote an entire thread to the "Background Image" theme.

here are a few.

This is a pretty cool background icon.

I've already posted great large stars in .png format.
This means, you can still post an additional background color.
Here's a smaller version of those stars.

here's one that's even smaller:

this is a dark shady background.
Perhaps, too repetitive?

Of course,
you might be able to find good simple backgrounds thru google search.

Here are a few suggestions:
search "repeating background texture"
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=repeating+background+texture&id=6A4D8A2751576FD4189B3F74A70C956595224BE2&FORM=IQFRBA



neon GIF backgrounds
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Neon+GIF+Backgrounds&Form=IQFRDR


repeating background images
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=repeating+background+images&qs=n&form=QBIR&pq=repeating+background+images&sc=4-27&sp=-1&sk=

Website Backgrounds repeating
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Website+Backgrounds+Repeating&Form=IQFRDR

for ladies:
repeating floral backgrounds
(Please, no angry comments)
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Repeating+Floral+Background&Form=IQFRDR


Background Repeating Vector Illustrations
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Background+Repeating+Vector+Illustration&Form=IQFRDR

SEAMLESS BACKGROUNDS
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=Seamless+Backgrounds&Form=IQFRDR

So, there are a few suggestions on how to get the perfect background.
Of course,
choosing a dark background will require using the correct text color.
Otherwise, viewing words on your headline might be difficult.
A good obvious trick is to simply choose the "Black" background.
Then, when choosing your new dark texture,
the existing format will already have a useful Text Color.
I believe, they will choose Red, by default.
Personally, I prefer using an off-white text color, whenever a dark background is used.



repeating background patters are too tacky
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=repeating+background+patterns&qs=IM&form=QBIR&pq=repeating+background&sc=8-20&sp=2&sk=IM1

too tacky again.

(finally, I prefer using Bing.com, rather than Google).

I've learned that it's sometimes necessary to get crafty,
when searching for items.

For example:
I was looking for a calender. (a basic, generic calender).
But,
searching Google or bing only showed calenders with distinct years.
So, After plowing through 10 pages,
I decided to try a new search.
This time, I tried "calender clipped".
http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=calender++clipped&qpvt=calender++clipped&FORM=IGRE

In other words;
I'm pretending that the left corner is being folded.
And this might yield a more generic calender.
It seemed to work fine.
