My blog posts have been either negatively focused and/or so spread out that I want to give away something I’ve been using for years. Three very basic paper photoshop brushes.

Sursly Photoshop Brush 1

I made these simply by crumpling up some boring office paper and scanning them. That’s it.

So enjoy. All I ask (which is included as a text file in this ZIP file) is that by downloading this ZIP you agree to credit me if you’re going to distribute it anywhere.

Sursly Blackout Font

As much as I fear seeing this font pop up in unexpected places, I’m equally excited about that same concept. For the time-being, this font (and corresponding files) will remain on sursly.com (and only there). As I develop Blackout further I will update this post and link to the latest version (wherever it may be), but for the time being: get it while it’s hottt

I’m also including the PSD file that was used to make these example files (which was made in CS2). I make no guarantees that this won’t blow up your computer, but it hasn’t happened to me. So I have to say: use at your own risk.

It used to be the background of my previous one-page site but since I’m not using it.
Here’s a link to the background image.

Here is a link to a demo page with the background image in use.

This is actually a pattern from a shirt I really like. Here’s a picture of me wearing it. If you use the file I’d love to see what you do with it.
