Thanks, will do! Any idea what I should texture that wouldn't be too difficult or too easy? I have a little bit of experience in Photoshop.

Just texture anything. Model a sword and texture it. Swords are nice and simple :P

Never mind guys, I give up, I suck. There is no good tutorials that actually help and I just can't do this right. Thanks for trying guys, but I am done.

Ach, don't give up. Everyone sucks when they first start texturing, it's like everything else - it just takes practice.

Really don't rely too much on tutorials. For most of them, they won't teach you anything in the end. Try and get out of the mindset that tour first response to something new is "I need to do this, let's go find a tutorial to tell me how". Because then if there isn't a tutorial for exactly what you need - you're screwed.

Try and look at other people's textures and think about how you'd go about achieving the same effect. Also, if you post up your attempts here, we can give you hints on how to proceed, what to look for, better ways to do things, etc... And don't be afraid to ask other people how they got the results they did.

It is just extremely hard to do and I don't have any place to get models and UVW's to practice on. I just want something extremely simple to download.

Check out the STC's. Perhaps you may find something there
