Turning Photos into Tileable Fills/Textures

[LordEntrails]

For awhile now I have been taking photo's of things that I think would make great realistic textures. Such as moss, bark, stone, etc

But I'm totally clueless how I would turn these into tileable fills or textures to us in my mapping.

Can anyone point me in the direction of such a tutorial? Thanks!

Many other sites have good tutorials as well. Google is your friend. When you search, specify the graphics program you are using. (i.e. "GIMP seamless texture tutorials")

Thanks, I tried Google, but didn't have the right terms. Appreciate it
