It's been a few years since I've posted the link. I think it's a great resource for all-levels of programmers, but especially when stand-in 2D/3D Graphics and/or sounds are needed for a proto-type/demo. The media can also be utilized in final projects; be-it commercial or non-commercial.

Info on the generous licensing:
(Basically,, include his name, "Reiner “Tiles” Prokein" in the credits, if used in a commercial game.)
In short: The 2D and 3D graphics are free to use for non
commercial and commercial useage. Accent at useage.
All the graphics, textures and meshes are freeware. Even for
commercial Games. I just want my name in the Credits in the
commercial case: Reiner “Tiles” Prokein. You can modify my
graphics in every needed way to fit it to your needs: size,
colour, fileformat, etc., you can reuse the textures … .
Even when the Graphics and meshes are freeware, it doesn´t mean
that you can upload my raw graphics and meshes to your page, sell
them or do something else with it. This also includes recoloured
or in other ways modified Sprites, Tilesets or meshes. The
graphics and meshes itself are mine as long as you haven´t made
something with it. But it becomes completely yours when you make a
game or something like that with it.
You can give away my graphics and meshes besides that. Just not
through a ressourcesite. I have this site by myself. The best is
to link to my page.
With other words: You can do everything with my graphics and
meshes, EXCEPT everything that directly competes with me. This
includes also any modifications or conversions, such things like a
thumbnail linkpage, etc.
Besides that, do with it what you want. Have fun.
