    any tutorials would be very very helpful, although this maybe asking to much, but what about a video tutorial, I dont think I will ever be able to understand how blazeer can create his textures all from scratch.

    also I would love just to see an example psd file, just to see how you edit things (I would understand if noone wants to post there source files).

    I think this is a good idea for a topic, was hopeing actually mikezilla would have started it. Maybe every once in a while post steps to creating a simplistic texture. Something that we could use to advance ourselves further on our own, using the basic steps given.

    I like doing texture art, but I doubt I do it via professional methods. That's why I rather not say how I do them <-- very insecure.

    /me kills mikezilla

    Well, not sure. I think there is some truth in what Duffy says. I think I would do well if I knew the right steps, but that's because i've been envolved in art a lot of my life. Maybe that's not true for everyone.

    C'mon mike, are you to chicken to put up tuts!?

    By the way did the reverse psychology work?

    Any Tom, Dick or Harry can make a flat photo of a wall tile, although there's an 'art' to some textures.

    truthful statement:

    I never learned ANYTHING about making textures from a "texture tutorial"

    you just gotta learn the FUNCTIONS of photoshop (THATS NOT FUCKING FILTERS!) and mess around a lot.

    It takes years to get good, not an afternoon.

    True!

    Allthough I have learned som technical short cuts and tricks with the

    help of tutorials, but thats only helpfull when you are fearly good at

    Photoshop.

    No, the best thing to do is to be honestly interrested in exploring PS,

    then things will automaticly be easyer to do.
