Well, my stint at making bitmap textures in photoshop was very short lived. It's a whole art and skill set on it's own. And on top of that, most high quality textures are made from high quality photos taken especially for the purpose....so, better get those photography skills honed. My suggestion, practice using Vue's procedural texture editor because it is very powerful and the possibilities are endless. But when only a bitmap will do the job, I recommend buying a good set (Marlin Studios is very good...I've got their Rustic Exteriors CD). Note that I am usually the last person to use somebody elses work in my images (hard to catch me using downloaded/purchased models...much rather do everthing myself), but, when it comes to bitmap textures, I leave it to the professionals. But I always make an attempt using procedurals before I use a bitmap. I cannot emphasize enough the value of getting intimately acquainted with procedural textures. With procedurals you could easily add moss growing up from the bottom of that block in your image. -Karl
