1. Introduction
There are two ways to apply a texture on an 2d picture or 3d object: as tile which repeats itself, or as shades mostly used for shading certain material such as metallic surfaces.

2. Tiles

Traditional
 

Click on it and see how they look like. We suggest you add left border to each of them, tile them to 1280x64 or so, and then edit with GIMP the left side of it so the background is more customized. Also, first step desaturate the background, and re-color the tile with your corporate color-shades.

Even with those few tiles we list you may able to draw a beautiful customized background, it doesn't require overfancy backgrounds.
