BioRUST Forums - View Single Post - Antique scroll paper and seamless texture

DeathByPixels · 11-16-2008

Hi folks,

I'm just about to start creating a WordPress theme and I'm just working out the look that I'd like to achieve. The look I'd like to achieve is a fantasy/medieval style. So basically I want each blog post to look like it was written on old antique paper.

I found this image on iStockPhoto and I am thinking of purchasing it to use for the texture. But before I do that, I'd like to know if the texture of the paper could be used for the purpose I've outlined i.e. a background texture for blog posts so that they look like they're written on old antique paper. Can it be used seamlessly?

IF you guys got better ideas for how I can make my blog posts look like they're written on antique paper i.e. the background texture then feel free to share.
