Recently Jan from Sky-Textures.com emailed me about some new textures they have. I checked out their site, and they do have some really cool textures for sale. I particularly liked their upcoming Lens Flare textures Jan showed me. So we got to talking, and they where able to hook us up with this exclusive set of 15 of their lens flare textures.
