Tutorial: How to do cartoon style textures like in mode7's Mario 64 pack?

  This tutorial leads you through the process of creating an earth wall texture from scratch. You will aquire all skills required to do these kind of textures, yet a graphics tablett is recommended.

The tutorial is in the attachments, as well as some psds you can use for further insight and reference (also containing the texture from the tutorial)
 

Mario Kart World Tour updated

Hey, here's a new update for my Mario Kart 64 pack! 

 

There are also 2 banners left, one more than really needed, but I'd like to throw out the EmuTalk banner due to its lack of colors.  Here's the newest addition:

 

VL-Tone is doing a great job on getting his object importer for Toad's Tool 64 done. :)

Site uploads and content editor

As mode7 pointed out, the dynamic content editor being used for body content has been acting up. This was a result of hacking away at it to force better integration into a site-wide upload system. This was a poor approach and has since been changed.

Contributors should now notice a "My files" link on the left hand side. This gives you personal storage space (200 MB) and an upload mechanism for any type of file you need. Therefore, users now 2 options for file uploads:

  1. Attach it to a node via the "File attachments" option when creating a blog entry, forum topic, etc. You can link to this file within the dynamic editor by copy-and-pasting the url of the attached file. If you'd like, you can uncheck the "listed" option for the file, which won't show it as an attachment but will show it wherever you linked it in your posting.
  2. Contributors can upload any filetype needed (large files, plugins, images, whatever) to their personal storage space and link to those files anywhere they'd wish.

Please shoot me a message if you have any issues with these options or if you've got any suggestions. I want the site to work in a way that best suits the needs of its users.

File Uploads - Current Implementation, Feature Requests?

I know many of you have needed an easier file upload structure for a while. Attaching files to pages is fine for projects, blogs, forums, etc., but sometimes you'll need to have a file posted nowhere in particular and be able to link to it whenever needed (for PMs, emails, whatever). I have tried multiple Drupal modules for file management, but all of them force you to attach files to nodes, which is just not what I'm looking for. Then I realized that our dynamic text editor (FCKeditor) for posting content, messages, etc., allows for image and file uploads, and has a decent file browser. I've tinkered with the configuration I think this is the best solution, as files uploaded for one purpose are not limited to that purpose -- you can copy and paste the link anywhere you'd like.

Contributor's have a 20 MB upload limit per file and a 200 MB upload cap on their account. If anyone needs more than that, PM me and I will allocate it. This server has some file storage, but 200 MB * x users could add up, so I had to put the cap somewhere. Please let me know if you need more. Post a comment below for ideas, questions, or feature requests.

Mario Kart World Tour - Community tasks

 

I'm asking you to help me out

 

 

There are two tasks right now:

 

1. I've replaced three of Mario Kart's banners with Emutalk, N64Redux and EmuDesc banners and there are still two ones left. Feel free to post your ideas. Resolution should be 512x128.

2. Would someone like to vectorize the missing on screen maps? I've attached the original files. Resolution should be 1024 x aspect ratio.  Picked up by Charlie. :)

 

Charlie created a banner:
