I went to the park yesterday and took some pics of interesting plant life. I then picked one and cleaned it up in Photoshop so it had a transparent background. After playing around with blender this weekend I have realized that I just won't have the time to help out in a big way with ages but I'd be more than happy to place some graphics that can be used by anyone here for texturing. I am assumming this is the right place to put this information.

I will have things in both Photoshop and PNG file types. I am not sure which one ppl will want. The advantage of the photoshop file is all the layers will still exist for future editing.

Secondly before I get too carried away is there another place that ppl are placing this kinda stuff?
Thirdly what size and how detailed/sharp should things be?

THis file still needs a little clean up but I have run out of time this weekend playing with blender... evil time munching computer! It's also small, I shrunk it down for the forum.

Any help in any way is always grateful Sudre

I have uploaded that pink flowered plant above to the Amber Horizons site. (large version)

I am also working on a grass texture that should look pretty good (2048x2048). I've mapped it over a large surface and have it repeating about 15 times without a serious repeating pattern to it. I'll upload it once I have it to my liking. I am just waiting for blender to get done rendering it so I can check it out in game.

Yah I just keep replying to my own post! lol

I have finished the grass texture. If someone gets a chance to look at it let me know what you think. I have placed it over a 100x100 area repeated about 10 times. It actually seems to have the illusion of a wave or depth in the grass... but that just might be me from starring at it all evening between corrections!
The best one in my opnion is:grassdetailed_rich

Now I just have to make some dirt to put under that grass!

I've managed to isolate a few coleus leaf bundles. If anyone can find a use for them feel free to use them. The photoshop version with them in different layers is on AH's FTP site.

Gorgeous, do they come in any other colour other than pink

Keep up the excellent work

I found this an interesting picture. It was a patch of asphalt. It's not seemlessly repeatable, yet, and will have a pattern to it but it still might work well for something since it really does not look like asphalt. There is a rather large and a medium version on the AH resource site.

If you happen to see a texture that you would like a little work done on drop me a PM and let me know. I probably won't get much done with this particular texture but if someone needed it cleaned up in some way I could probably get to it in a day or so.

Well with photoshop I could make them any color you'd like!
