You can change the colour my textures to suit your own purposes although credit is still required under the terms of my license agreement (since it can take hours to create the texture and a couple of seconds to change the colour I don't feel that is unreasonable as it will still look very much like the original).

In March 2007 and again in February 2008 I've taken down large batches of older, lower quality textures off the site. I still have most of the removed items on my computer so if you really are desperate for a particular old texture which is no longer hosted here then contact me with a description or item number.

For some reason a spate of companies keep contacting me via The Fat Strawberry asking me if I would like to sell ad space on the site. I suspect said companies are in fact wanting to buy ad space on Parsimonious given it has 15-20 thousand visitors a day compared to the few hundred daily visitors that come here, if that's you then please contact me via Parsimonious or your proposal will be ignored. If you are in fact dumber than a box of rocks and can't work out how to do that then I don't want to do business with you.
