hmmmm well you can us etexture maker then uv map the texture. you can us epaint wich i dont recmend you can use tatto if you can convert it to an X file it shows th eobject while your making the texture for it. there are many things you can do. it pretty much comes down to UV mapping.

Instead of just learning how to program i am also learning how to model in Wings 3D so if you know of any good tutorials let me know.

I just did a search on google, and found a couple of tutorials. I havn't read them though (just skimmed them), so I don't know how useful they'll be. Good luck though.

Heh. I found a really good tutorial on this a while back, but I haven't been able to find it since.

Oh well, I use Blender now anyway...

The first link in your above post explained it all for me...except it didnt give me the talent or power app to make a texture with. I only have MS Paint....hehe

I use The Gimp. It's not bad, but not as good as paintshop or photoshop (apparently-I've never used them personally).

However, it doesn't really matter because I completely suck at texturing...

Sorry if this seems a bit off topic, but the 2D creation program is an important part of the texturing process.

Texturing can be the most important part of the modeling process...lol, without a texture a model is...well..a canvas.
