looking for old website with little gifs of antique wallpaper

February 9, 2006 9:28 AM

does anyone know of a site similar to the "damask wallpaper gallery?"

this is the old url: http://www.theinspirationgallery.com/wallpaper/damask/wp_damask01.htm

it was a collection of little gifs of antique wallpaper that you could tile to get the whole pattern. I'm not sure how long it's been down or if it will ever be back... and damnit, i need some little gifs of some antique wallpaper! any ideas?

thanks!

I'm able to access it just fine. Try clearing your cache/restarting your browser/rebooting your computer?

The first time I tried, I got a server error, but then I was able to get in. It looks like the site may just be having technical difficulties. In any case, there hare been similar questions in the past asking for pattern sites. I'm sure someone who knows the popular ones by heart will chime in soon.

Squidfingers has several good ones. There was a previous thread with some other good suggestions as well.

No problems with the damask site for me.

Yeah, as long as we're talking alternatives, our own taz has some nice and pretty stuff too.

All the graphics are broken for me (Firefox 1.5.0.1).
