hP: Well, I was hoping to get the point across here that you shouldn't be generating your normal map straight from your diffuse using CrazyBump-like apps because it doesn't give you accurate results (see: the first normal map in the tutorial) :/

Unless you're using a really, really complex natural diffuse like rock, earth or grass. Painting a height map for those sorts of things wouldn't be worth it.
