[REQ]Tileable Smoke Texture

I guess i could have posted this in art and modeling but technically its not for spring.
Can someone post a smoke texture (white smoke on a black background) that I can tile? It is intended as the background of a website I am making for some friends.
Would be cool :)

I'm pretty sure there's an option for rendering clouds in PS (render menu?) but I don't have it installed on this computer so I don't know if it auto-tiles...

If I Recall Correctly there was an additional PS filter that would take a selected region and convert it to a tillable texture too...

that filter is called offset and it helps you to get rid of the seams with the smudge or copy pasta stamp tool

you can make any image tileable by mirroing and putting together again in 4 corners.
