Well thats good to hear, as I already have photoshop, well PS 6 anyway, and i went out and bought a copy of 3Dstudio max last night
Could I also bother you guys for some links to tutorials on mapping for GR? the few that I have found so far are rather crappy (no offence to the authors of those articles)
anyway, thanks for the welcome.
Glad to join the forums here
hope to get to know all you guys in the future.
