Hipster and fellow Plexus designer, Andrew, sent me a link to a pretty cool pattern generator simply called BgPatterns. In a matter of minutes - seconds really - you can generate a tiled Web background with your choice of colors (two), and a small selection of textures and graphics. Your graphical options are somewhat limited but given how easy it is to use, the limitations can be overlooked.

Recently created and top rated patterns can be viewed and saved once you've signed up for an account. You can also rise to the challenge of creating and submitting a design of your own.

If you like what you see and find the generator useful, please consider donating to the cause.
