How could I make textures similar to the ground textures in this game: http://www.teagames.com/games/funkytruck3/play.php
Im making something similar but I am totally new to making any game graphics... Even one single "rock" from the ground in the example would probably be enoguh for me because I could rotate it in random directions.
I have photoshop cs5 and gimp.
I would recommend Photoshop in your case. Just make the rock shape with the pen tool, and if you're not good at digital painting, you could easily use layer styles to make the rock "pop" out a bit like they did in the game.
Edit: Here's something I quickly scrapped up. Simple pen-tool-made shape. Put a stroke on it, and did the default gradient overlay set to "lighten". This only took about 15 seconds, so, putting a little more effort into it, I'm sure you'll get just what you're looking for.
