Each Wraptures volume contains over 130 different, seamless, tile-able, 32-bit, photographic textures in PICT format on CD-ROM. You can use Wraptures in your 3D renderings; as multimedia, video, and presentation backgrounds; in desktop publications; and anywhere you can import a PICT file. Wraptures One was created for anyone who wants access to a large variety of high-quality textures and presentation backgrounds. Each Wraptures texture starts as a 32-bit high-quality scan of a professional photograph and is then retouched by the hands of a graphics professional so that it tiles seamlessly, and produces an “even” texture that reduces repetition when tiled. Each Wrapture comes in multiple resolutions in 32 and 8-bit color. A printed color catalog of all the textures is provided as well as an on-line electronic browser. Wraptures are free of royalties and can be used in your own productions for distribution or broadcast.
