A pattern is a background image, which is almost a texture, (the difference being that most patterns are digitally created) that is widely used for website layouts, posters, advertisements and almost any graphic which requires some enhancement. It gives to the website or created art a new, fresh, elegant feature, thus greatly improving it. Patterns are usually those small elements which make a big difference on posters, adverts, websites and any digital graphic design. You can find free patterns all around the internet which you can use in both your commercial and personal projects, depending on the license.
