I haven't seen a tutorial on how to make a skybox from an image like that one, most tutorials discuss using terragen or other 3D tools.
I didn't use anything fancy, just cut sections from the image with GIMP. I started with a selection of six 256x256 tiles arranged in a T shape. This gives 5 seams which are already "correct" and 7 which will be visible seams. Then I copied and pasted bits of the image to cover over the 7 seams to hide them. It turned out okay - if you look carefully you can see a few seams.

"Where did all the maps go?! Didn't like 12 ppl announce maps?
Amazing."
I think people WANT to do things like this but real life intrudes or they lose momentum or whatever. It's life. It isn't like it was any different back in the day either. :)
Hell, I'll have a map to turn in but it won't be everything I wanted it to be. I'm already trying to figure out a quick way to wrap it up in order to get it done in time. It's going to be extremely tight for me.
Well Thats Six For Sure:
