I did some browsing yesterday for some textures. Found some sets. Many of these sets are TIF & JPG. For Example – Filter: Texturizer, isn’t allowing
the use of the TIF & JPG textures, (example: TIF of wood in color). What is the purpose if these TIF & JPG textures that I’m missing? (Only allowed to choose grayscale PSD files in Texturizer Filter)

Is there a simpler way of making a tiled wood background than… Opening a color TIF or JPG. Selecting with selection tool, then "Define Pattern", then going to Fill Dialogue Box and choosing the newly created "Defined Pattern"?

I’d like to have a way to just have my texture files (JPG & TIF) in a necessary file folder within PS. Then being able to use them, tile them and scale them from one of the filters or plugins… Is this possible and am I missing something..

They are probably intended as texture maps for 3D rendering programs.
