I agree with you 100%, the CLs do a fabulous job!
But there is a big difference between a theme (that you may or may not decide to try) and the forced use of a particular software program that some people cannot even use (http://www.cartographersguild.com/sh...ad.php?t=29046) or don't want to spend a month learning when they know they will never want to or be able to afford to buy it.
No one is forced to enter the challengesIf people don't want to do this one, that's not a problem, for me it's just the same when people aren't interested in a challenge theme. Like I said before, there will always people that won't enter a challenge for some reasons ( lack of interest, lack of time and such). I don't see such a big issue here.
I just voiced a simple opinion.....I don't want to fight.

No fight here, I'm only discussing about an opinion you voiced.
Chick, you don't *have* to use the software. You can just use the textures created by it which is on their website.
for the NON Microsoft people
Filterforge dose seam to work in the current version of W.I.N.E. 1.7.33
PhotoShop??? iffy

Well, I tried, but it turns out you still have to download the many-MB program and use it to get those textures, even to just render them into a file to use them.Originally Posted by ravells
No Chick..you don't. Use your browser and save the image as a jpeg. That's all you need to do.
OK, yes, you can do that I found. It's very low resolution and fairly small, but usable.
In any case, I went ahead and downloaded the trial version to see more of the textures, so I'm good now. Thanks for your help!
No worries!! If you work of 96 dpi you'll be OK for stuff on the web.
big hug!
