Jeans Tutorial Problems

Ok so i've been following this tutorial too create a pair of jeans for the past two days with nothing but problems. First Gimp keeps on crashing or freezing up on me then i finally got it finished saved it and shut down gimp. Came back a little while later too upload into SL and the file was corrupted so i tried too open back up in Gimp and it was having none of it. I'm actually ready too pull my hair out.

Is there anyway too do this tutorial but using Photoshop instead as i've had nothing but problems with Gimp?

Sorry forgot too post it

link to tutorial?

Yes, actually there is. Anything you can do in the GIMP can be done in PS. BUT the commands are named differently and the buttons' icons are different (in some cases). Your best bet is to post this in the Texturing forum to see if someone with more knowledge than I (cough cough Chip cough cough Ceera) can come along and help you properly.

Here's the linky for that forum: /109/1.html
