"Dark Brick Wall", Background Pattern #1024
 Stone  CC BY-SA 3.0

Like the name suggests, this background image consists of a pattern of dark bricks. It may be an option for you, if you are looking for something that looks like a brick wall for use as a background on web pages. It's not a masterpiece, but looks pretty nice when is tiled.
