Need Help With Textures

<div class="IPBDescription">Pictures Supplied</div> I'm currently working on a map with a small area that is covered in snow. I had some trouble finding some snow textures, so I took a few pictures of some home grown, 100% Minnesotan snow. I would like to have these pictures turned into Half-Life textures, and able to be tiled without looking too repetitious. I would do it myself, but I have very little experience with image editing.
Attached is a preview with parts of the seven pictures I would like to be changed. If you're interested, e-mail me at spikeyhairedlittlepunk@hotmail.com.

    Home grown, 100% Minnesotan snow ownZ!
    Need more pics, larger or better quality.

    The hl-rally mod has a nice pack of snow textures.

    Better pictures to work off of, or to see what you might be working on? I'll slap together some html quickly.

    Okay, the pictures are <a href='http://www.geocities.com/spikeyhairedlittlepunk/snow.html' target='_blank'>here</a>.

    I just used the smaller versions to make them tiled:

    one looks nice (just when you know how to use them)
    one looks worse (because its brightness changes slowly to the top)
    the others have too less contrast to make any problems.

    Actually, they aren't shrunken versions, they're just the corners- would you mind doing the full pictures <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo--> ? I would use the HLRally textures, but it says they are only for use with HLRally.

    Do they have a copyright on it?

    No, there's no copyright, but I have to contact the creators. Even if I'm able to use the Rally textures, I would still like to use my pictures as well.

    ChromeAngel -It wasn't the camera, it was just a blue day <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
    If you could, would you please do it both ways, so I can compare and see which would work better? I think that there are some areas where a neutral color would work, and others where a blue tone is needed.
    Thanks for taking this up!
