This year has seen a big increase in grungey / textured / hand-drawn styled website designs. By nature I tend to design a cleaner look myself, but I thought I’d try my hand at grunge today and write up a tutorial on creating a simple paper texture from scratch in Photoshop then marrying it with a web layout to create a neat design. Then later this week we’ll take this same web design and I’ll show you how you can take remixing even further than just changing backgrounds and colour schemes , that in fact you can change the entire style of a design. But first let’s make our paper texture site! Making a texture in Photoshop will generally result in a more stylized than realistic look, but it has its own charms. Also it means you don’t need any external images.
