That would be quite doubtful TJ, but I would like to learn the basics of texturing my models. Creating a simple texture is fairly easy to make, but making it actually look decent is a whole nother en-chee-la-da. Both Paint.net and GIMP are very cool, but using their' tools takes some real thinking, and quite a bit of imagination. I used to get in to trouble in school, back in the day, for daydreaming on paper drawing model airplanes and such. Now, that I'm much older my creative imagination seems to have evaporated into sheer nothingness. Alas, where oh where has my mag-i-nation a gone. BNG
