Hey! If it's a texture you're looking for, this site can help: http://www.texturemate.com/content/texturepacks
When using a texture, be sure to set the Blending Mode of the texture layer to something appropriate like Screen or Soft Light. It may also help to reduce the Opacity to achieve a more subtle effect.
If it's a pattern you're looking for, the website I most commonly use is http://subtlepatterns.com/ -- apply patterns by opening a layer's Layer Style, going to Pattern Overlay and loading up the pattern file from in there.

Hello! Animations are really fun to work with, great choice.
Getting started might be frustrating at first, depending on what types of animations you're trying to do. I would start with photoshop, doing more simple animations like moving texts, objects etc. Just learning how to setup key frames and how to make them the smoothest. When you're feeling like you can do that you can move on to After effects where you can make more creative and complex animations.
Youtube and different tutorials on the forum is a great start, you might even want to download some templates and see how they're set up and work with that.
If you have any more questions you can either send me a PM or leave a comment here. Have a great day!

If you want to go straight on After effects that works perfectly as well. I started with photoshop though but starting with After effects would also work.

After Effects is your best bet to start making complex and seamless animations. It works very differently to Photoshop, so you're basically going to have to learn from scratch. YouTube is your best port of call for this.

What Rivalry Said ^. If you intend to make really complex and hawt animations, After Effects is the way to go. Hit me up on Skype when you get the time, will link you some interesting stuff :)

First of all, did you remember to write the expression on the point of 4 seconds? It does set a keyframe, and that might be your problem, you can always move that keyframe.
If that doesn't work, you can always make a precomp and move the precomp over in the original comp, so just do it from 0 to 1 in the precomp and work from there.
As far as I am concerned, there is nothing in the expression itself that you need to change. You can try to change the if t>0 to t>4, but I don't think that's the problem.
Try to see if the keyframe is placed properly, if it is, you can always just do the precomp trick, I believe.
Hope it helps ^^

Well, not really a problem needing a solution, but: What is the best website you get for free or cracked fonts? Or just general resources.
