Is there a working tuturial on this? There's a link for kami's tutorial but it's broken and the other link leads me to nowhere.

I use MSpaint. All the pros use it.

How?

Hes joking. Rainbow is a funny guy like that :-P

-basically get a paint studio. (such as paint shop pro, corel photo paint, photo shop, etc..)
-once youve learnt how to use it get wally.
-learn how to use wally to make the texture HL compatible and your able to make textures.

for any specific tuts go talk to the art forum people.

No matter which technique I use to put the images into a wad (batch conversion, drag n drop, pasting) I get either a black image or a black/white striped image...:(

make sure it's a 256 colour bitmap

If you have a host, I'm willing to upload the *.psd files of textures i've made if that could help you get you started.

Anyway, just do a search on google and it should bring up at least a few tutorials.

You see, thats why I said learn how to use the paint program if you knew what you were doing with it you wouldnt need to ask, especially that. its a basic. dopnt worry we all started somewhere but like I said teh art forum guys are prly your best bet for info.

Actually my problem was that the textures were larger than 512x512. :)
