g.hostFACER!:
Perfect prompt, considering I was JUST wondering.. how the hell do you even get a texture, let alone make one???????

Help would be much appreciated.. Very Happy

OH and congrats winner! I voted for you!


A texture is just a decorative layer that most people put on their graphics. Here are some good examples:
1 2 3

If you are looking to find out how to use one (in better deatail), I suggest this thread.
And as for making one, I suggest you just try it out. Just mess around a bit... you'll come up with something.

I don't think so.
I'm sure you can do fine without an existing brush! : )

i am waves.:
i think a good idea for a promt would would be having to make something with the sims.
if you've ever looked up pictures that some people make on flickr, they can get really creative.
just a suggestion. : ]
I love sims =P it is a good idea.
and me? I have the picture you gave us left to put on the picture I already made. xD

You mean using brushes for this prompt?
Sure, as long as you've made it yourself!

And please pm me about prompt suggestions, I don't want people to know about the suggestions as they can then brainstorm in advance; I just want to keep it as fair as possible ^__^

I believe that what I made actually was a texture, or else I would be blind, I guess...

I am so blurry, a bit confused, no wait, maybe I am not xD

It's just that I haven't made any real textures before.
