I am using only three textures in those images:

Agria Concrete
Aiur Grass
Aiur Grunge

The texture Aiur Grunge has very defined lines on it which you can use to create edging for other texutres like I did the concrete. The lines aren't as consistent as other textures which gives it a softer look in places, as though the "grungey dirt" has risen over the concrete in places.

I can make guides for some more advanced texturing techniques i've used in maps like Genesis aswell, if some people were interested.

Make cliff, texture it, texture below, then, make the whole thing flat, becomes something like this, if you do it right.

edit: it's actually not quite as same, but maybe if you blur the textures, it might work?

I'll wait for etcetra's guide though.

Yeah I noticed that. I can't see what's wrong with the code, I suspect there might be a limit to how many pictures a post can contain, but I really don't know.
