 Make woodfloor textures yourself with the great free: "Floor Texture Generator" by Martin Chudomel. 
 http://www.matulik.host.sk/download.php?p=0
 Max texture size is 2000x2000 pixels.
 Output is not tiling so you'll have to fix that in Photoshop.To see what can be done here's one I've made:

 Bumping an old but useful thread: MyPaint Windows/Linux and a bunch of free brushes. I like the minimalist interface.

 Sorry, I don't use it myself... I don't render or post process so... I'm not in the know. Just remembered it wowing me years ago. Didn't know they wanted a pound of flesh for it.

 Krita has been mentioned before, but somehow lost on the thread. It has completely replaced my long years using Gimp. It's also free but way more advanced. Gimp has a lot of plugins, but Krita is way better. Krita is: - primarly a digital painting with a lot of brushes and an amazing and customizeable brushing system;
- Brushes can also be used for clone/heal and everything can be configured to the smallest detail;
- Non destructive layers for: Masks, Tone mapping and transformation effects.
- And what unbelievable transformation effects you can get on those layers (I still can't believe they are non destructive);
- Also if you replace the base layer image it applies the transformation/tonemapping effects to the new base image;
- It is perfectly capable of all the color, levels, curves, saturation adjustments and tone mapping on images up to 32-bits.
 It has it's flaws and there's things that take a bit getting used to. But I recommend it to anyone dealing with digital images...
