I went to cgtextures.com to look for a texture. When I clicked to download, I was rerouted to textures.com (formerly cgtextures.com) and they charge per download. Oops. That's a nice resource that's taken away.
Someone online suggested... http://www.goodtextures.com
Looks good on first glance, so I figured I'd share the info.

Worst interface ever... 500 textures available, but you have to go page by page to see them, no search, no grouping of category... In order to be useful, you have to download the whole collection (2.1 GIG)...
Better interface, but still have to join... Don;t know if they're still free even when joining because I have no desire to join yet another site...

It still has the same thing at the new site they give you 15 free credits per day to download textures. Just sign in and off you go. It sounds like you were not signed in.
They moved the database over etc so just use your old info. You might need to reset your password.

I don't know about this.. But I just now downloaded from CGTextures just fine. There is a statement that they are moving, but it still works like it always has.

cricky its on domain forwarded look in your browser you will see that its textures.com they forward you to the new site (its the same site just they fixed it up a bit for mobiles and changed from bandwidth to points)

The point was: The original Title subject still indicates that the textures are NOT free.. when they in fact are.
The New Domain just changed for me this morning; I downloaded 15 images last night from the old domain. Even with the NEW Domain, they still offer FREE images.

Yes its the identical site the only thing is instead of 15mb its 15 points which is pretty much the same daily allowance as it has always been unless you want higher resolution which I rarely have needed/wanted because I tend to use the textures as a base to create seamless textures or just bits or pieces for patterns. I purchased a membership once just because I had used the site so much I felt I should give them some money for a month or two as a thank you.

I went there again and saw that I had 15 free credits. So I went to download a lower res version (the better res apparently are only for paying premium members) and tried to download the lower res, but the page it took me to said ERROR, and that I do not have access to the image. So I tried a different texture and the same thing happened.
If it works for you, fantastic. I'm not sure what's going on, but that's enough for me to look elsewhere.
