hi everyone,

i hope you can help.  i am looking for a realistic looking snow texture to apply to mountains (high resolution preferrably otherwise i'll photoshop it to increase the res.)  anyone know of a site that will be nice.  i can't find anything to satify me by googling images.  so i'm searching for sites.  i'm using vue 5 infinite in case you are wondering.  thanx.

Why don't you just create it procedurally?

Agtree with Dave, procedural snow is better than bitmap.

If you want to see a killer image that uses snow on mountains, check out Bruno's Mt. Rainer post:

For closeup snow, I created a procedural snow mat that looks reasonably convincing (not as good as Bruno's however):
