take a deep breath Maverick, let it out, repeat.

A/w, (1) You make textures in program like PhotoShop 7. Make the pixel count a mulitple of 8. (eg 256x256, or 512x512) Than make your texture. Save it as a TGA or DDS. You may need to download the appropriate plugin. Consult Kasidia Texturing walkthrough for more on this.

(2) You attach textures in Milkshape. Assign the texture as a Material in the Materials Tab. Select the Part you want texture. (Hopefully you grouped the sections you want textured seperately.) Then click Assign. If it worked, you should be able to see the Material attached in the group tab. To see the texture on the 3D Model switch from Smooth or Flat Shaded to Texture in the right click pop-up menu.
