I applaud the fact you have made an effort and you have the modding fever just suggest you take your time and read tutorials thoroughly and use templates in game textures fully.
At any rate do not want you to think I am trolling your post or riding you because I have responded to a lot of your post.Would really like to see you stick with it and learn and become a regular because you are showing genuine interest best wishes sincerely Rain
edit-One other note and again for all newcomers not directed at anyone in particular
If you use other game textures or other modder's work be sure they are not on the do not edit list and a complementary pm asking permission doesn't hurt.
That full credit is given/posted
Far as templates go not sure if it's a 100% credit must be posted but back to board edict it is a better way to show and in turn gain respect.
