<font size="2">Hey.. well im not a pro or some guy with lots of
links..you can always search for it on the internet... according to me
texturing is here is how and what it is..<br>
</font>
<ul>
<li><font size="2">When you create a model (object) the color or the
feel that you get is because it uses the default scene material..So
texturing in other terms is material..</font></li>
<li><font size="2">for eg. im max when you create a teapot you
cannont idnetify if it is made out of plastic, wood, clay, Gold.etc.
cause it does not have "a skin" so to speak.</font></li>
<li><font size="2">in order to identify a perticulair object that you have created is by texturing it</font></li>
<li><font size="2">Texturing is more of a tecnique or a process whichever you see it as... <br>
</font></li>
<li><font size="2">The process of creating a texture you would need
the following.... 1) Define what your object is made up of..for eg.
Wood for instance you would nee a shader which give your object some
kind of base..like metalic shader if you would wana create Gold.. and
then you define properties like Reflection, transperency the strength
of highlights ... Ambience (the color of the object when kept in a room
with no lights) <br>
</font></li>
<li><font size="2">if you have a logo on a tabel you would do it in
photoshop and assign as an image over an object like replacing
the base color of the object with an image, either the whole object or
some part of it (Mask)...</font></li>
<li><font size="2">PM Dynafx and ask him to mail you some links if you still din't understand...</font></li>
</ul>
<font size="2">there that should give you a basic overview..... <br>
P.S my hands were paining to type all that..ill do the rest later..<br>
