Still, you can use cliff stamps. Whenever I go near to cliffs, water and rocks and stuff I take photos and chop them up.

Try these water textures :-

then some cliffs...

and try to combine them up. This is what I did in about 2 mins with stuff I had lying about.

Check out all of http://www.cgtextures.com/ as they have lots of stuff that can be clipped together to make some cliffs.
Thanks a bunch! That looks really good.

I'm not adverse to learning GIMP, but I don't really have a ton of time. I always find raster programs mystifying and vector programs to be very intuitive (GIMP vs. Inkscape; Photoshop vs. Fireworks--I get and can do pretty cool stuff in both Inkscape and Fireworks, but GIMP and Photoshop both mystify me. Go figure.). I'll use what you've got here and go from there.

Thanks, and if anyone has any ideas about the wall issue, I'd appreciate.
