Loads of skyboxes: http://www.custommapmakers.org/skyboxes.php
Common Problems:
-Due to hardware limitations on some computers you may see some visible seams at the edges of the skybox. If this is the case then add these two lines to the end of the loadCubeMap() method, just before returning the texID:
GL11.glTexParameteri(GL13.GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP, GL11.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL12.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
GL11.glTexParameteri(GL13.GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP, GL11.GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL12.GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
