I should've said that 0008 is my larger textures and 0010 is an unmodified tug for comparison.

Another attempt, closest to what I was aiming for. Its the spiders legs outside surface that was bugging ;-) me, it has the most stretched textures particularly compared to the sides which are hardly stretched at all. Anyway I wanted to "fix" what was one of the most visible textures in the game, to be more pleasing to the eye.

I really would appreciate some comments.

Nice shot. But what am I looking at, and how does it relate to alpha channels? How about a comparison pic?

What was I thinking, I forgot to put the link in for the new picture. Make sure you see them full size as IE's resizing ruins the detail.

homepage.ntlworld.com/botworld/shot0010.jpg <--- original textures
homepage.ntlworld.com/botworld/shot0000.jpg <--- bigger sharper textures,

I started this to improve the spiders leg textures particularly the ones on the outside edge. But ended up doing quite a few others most noticably the comsec and its collar.

PS Did you get my email Second Chance?

Jumbo - No I didn't, when did you send it? If it was anything like two weeks or so ago, try resending it. I was trying out a technique for fooling forum spiders and was using special characters in my sig email address. It didn't work. Resend, and I'll keep an eye out.
