Quicksand Backrounds?

[Cartesheripade]

I want to start making my own manipulations but one thing - where is the best place to get good backrounds? Any replies will be appreciated.

For starters, go through my pictures on Flickr for a wide variety of boggy pix:

You can search for my BM adventures in the General Discussion forum. I include a number of pictures with each post:

Okay, so in my adventure postings, there are many pix of the same pit taken at different parts of the season, both undisturbed and disturbed, but If you keep going back, you will find some pix of other boggy spots as well.

Hope that helps.

Yes, it does help! Thank you!

Fred588 also offers many background pix for free, listed on his website (product 12005, entitled "Backgrounds 1"), with the requirement that you have to preserve his copyright notice on the backgrounds. It is listed close to the bottom of the page, and you have to place an order for it:
