The use of textures in web design has been popular for a while, and it’s still going strong. It’s definitely an excellent way to add realism and depth to a design, but the key to successfully using textures is not to over do it. The last thing you want to do is add some busy texture as a background that distracts the user’s attention away from what’s important, which is the content. Take a look at these examples to get inspiration on the proper way to do textures in web design.

Now is the time of simple background without anything.. The important is the content… but if we don’t have a good content? I think will be better have a good middle of between content and images, in those moment. Good examples..in any case. Thanks for sharing.
Nice websites, thanks. It’s amazing how many of these websites are for iPhone Apps.
Nice examples as always Gisele.
I really enjoy the soft retro colors of HDlive but that text header looks like HO live to me.
