Many thanks! - a very extensive and useful list, sure to come in handy. It's getting harder and harder to find good texture sites as more and more start asking for payment/subscriptions.

pff for textures just get your mod team to invest into the 3dtotal texture CD's at www.3dtotal.com.

Extremely cheap compared to other texture packages like dosch and royalty free. You'll be using them the rest of your lives even in a professional evironment
