Ah, I've looked at that how-to-use-photo-textures bit on Rochr's site. And actually it isn't that bit I need help with but more actually MAKING the texture to start with. i.e. making from scratch, or adjusting a simple photo, but I'd prefer making from scratch as otherwise I'd have to use someone else's photo as a starting point. I like the idea of being able to do it all myself you see... Not that I refuse to use other people's photos, just that I'd like to be able to do it myself as well. Can you imagine just how satisfying it would be? - just for once - to be able to say on posting an image - "everything you see is made by ME!"
