Does this type of pattern have a name?

Look at the background of this site...

I've seen hundreds of sites with patterns like that. what is it called? and where can I get some patterns of my own?

Salathe will become famous soon enough

The style is based on historical Damask fabric patterns. (More info on Wikipedia)

Here: http://www.theinspirationgallery.com...p_damask01.htm
are hundreds (~300) variations which you can use. That's the link I give out whenever anyone asks for this style of tiling image for their designs.

These are generally known as textile patterns, often used in fabrics. Also known as repetative imagery sometimes.
