Outstanding. Thank you Gare.

There used to be a cracker commercial that went something like, "If it sits on a Ritz"...

I used several of the textures in this, but probably nothing would make the design tasty.

New planet discovered, named Otis P (*).
(actually made using Gare's Driftwood texture with the help of an ancient Paintshop Pro 8 for the spherize and illumination effects). The rest was done in XDP 9 with the help of the Glitterato plugin from Flaming Pear.
(*) Named after the Otis P. Driftwood character played by Groucho in the Marx Brothers movie Night at the Opera from 1935.

Thanks Gare! My favorite is Decflor2 in terms of pretty but "Messy but elegant" is also very nice. I love some of the names you gave the tiles and my favorites are "Uncomfortable ice cubes" and "Alien ship hull".

iamtheblues -- Planet Otis looks great!

I used several of the textures for the dragon, it's bowl, and background layers...

Great image of the dragon Maya so sticking with the theme "Dragons" I came up with this, not used all the fills Gary posted this month but one from Tonal tiling fills. A wee bit late but - Happy New Year to everyone.
