@ Torstan Cool!
Thanks for the advice. I was thinking of that. They would be an important component. Now to go on a trunk hunt. lol

@ TheElf
I will use PS or GIMP. I have a bit of knowledge of both. I have lots more now that I have been through the tutorials on this site.

@ Steel General
Thanks for the warm welcome! I will play around a bit and post once I have something I am not to embarrassed to share. I look forward to the CC that I will get once I submit my amateur maps. ; )

Thanks again everyone for the help.

Now that I am looking around a bit more, I notice that I should have posted this thread in another area. Sorry about that. Darn noobs!
