Are you talking about an unwrapper or a 2d application?

www.google.com this wonderful program called SEARCH ENGINE. Also FYI bfore your get massively flamed... its spelled "Texture" if indeed your referring to one of those images that can be wrapped around a model, and not some extinct species of dinosaur.

Using "search engine" look for GIMP or Paintshop Pro or maybe even MSPaint...

how can you "sux" at searching? All you do is type in wat your searching for!!

What he means is he's lazy to spend a few seconds doing something himself, when he can just make us find it for him. This is what I call a good time manager...

I hear Lithunwrap is prety good.(I think that's the right name) Also, GIMP or Photoshop are good for making textures.

You'd use something like Lithunwrap, which will let you load your model (.3DS is a good export/import format) then UV map it onto the texture. You should read some tutorials as UV mapping is something of a black art, there's a few techniques that have to be learned.

The idea is that each vertice in your model also has a 2D texture location known as it's UV coordinate, this is an X and Y location on your texture, so you'd position these UV coordinates on your texture and that part is replicated on the polygon. With Lithunwrap it's a case of selecting the object, vertices, or polygons and then selecting a mapping mode, like cylinder mapping - then you'll have the UV coordinates unfolded and ready for scaling and positioning on the texture. Saving as .X should let you load the models in DB.

Opening the models supplied with DB should give you some valuable tips.
