my map is coming along and the mario castle looks really neat. I had made a stained glass texturew for this one part of my map but after applying it and it looks cartoonish to say the least. I was wondering if someone with some talent in making transparent glass could custom design me a stained glass texture.

I'd want like this design in the middle of it



and have some fragments of silver and gold to mkae up the rest. so it's like church windows. there are like jagged peices of glass coloured silver and gold, and then that design in the middle.The map is very "creative" and the way i have it set up in my head the glass will be behind a custom brush that i made and i will put a light behind the glass so it looks like the sun is shining thru and will give a good shadow effect to the brush and the area around it.


anyways if someone could plz do that it'd be appreciated. Of course you'll be credited for your work when it is released

Thanks

no. but good try.umm lemme see if i can explain this. ok. for the silver and gold.i want like a jigsaw puzzle of peices and each one is a diff colour.either silver or gold, and then the design is interlaced with it or even placed on top but it still looks as if the design is transparent as well. hope that clears things up a bit

you may have to try and draw what you want in photoshop as a decal then apply it to the glass texture remembering to reverse the decal for the inside, I have done that for a shop window in a map I am working on and it looks very effective, being able to see the decal written backwards from the inside of the shop

no cuz i'd need phostoshop 7 to add transparency around the edges in order to make it a decal otherwise it will spread and make it look stupid
