Burningwell needs your pictures
« on: 20 May 2011, 10:14:27 »
I think(hope) a lot of modders here use burningwell to create their textures .

But there can be more pictures!!!
Please every one think about what is missing at burningwell, take photos and upload them there!
For example some more rock textures from other kind of rock would be really nice to see there!

If you also want to take some photos for burningwells texture section too, try to upload only photos which are good:
- Sharp ( everywhere where its important! )
- Have no shadows or light reflexes
- Things which need to be cut out later ( like plants ) should have a background with a good contrast. This makes it much more easy to use them.
- Show something useful for textures ( always think like a modder who needs to use this texture )

And maybe you can give me some feedback here if you used textures from burningwell to make mods:

Some more hints how to take good pictures even with cheap cameras:
- you need a lot of light! But not very strong sunlight ( which just causes shadows and reflexes ).
- try to not move the camera while taking a photo, don't breath and don't move when you press the button . You will see a huge difference when looking at it with the computer
- you need a clean lens! Look at the lens from time to time to enshure that you did not touch it with the fingers or whatever.....

Whats needed are not just pictures! Think like you want to make textures from them.
And a problem with this are legal protection of registered designs maybe, so you will not be allowed to use the stuff for a game .... ( I hate this legal stuff! )

I don't think the norwegian defence have a huge care for what happens with images of their clothing :|
Anyways I'll take a tour with my camera and picture some stuff :D
