That's a perfect tutorial :)
Another thing I would like to know is how to make trees (Blender?) but especially the leaves. [GSF] Ghost would not shed any light on the subject for me...
Dglider:
Good job on the constructor section. Though you have yet to explain the vertex, face, and brush tools at the bottom of the screen. The face tool is very important when messing with textures as you can select multiple faces on different objects and unify them so it looks like one object. I'd give a pic but im on my iPod and it's like, 2:14 here. :o. Goodnight.
Wookiee:
A quote from Jimmg on the subtract tool:
You should never ever, under any circumstances use the subtract/carve tool. Use the cliptool.
This is the differences between them.
It's from a "How to make your first interior" thread on the RTB forums

There's reason for neatness I'd say, but I've personally not really seen much mess using subtract. But I'll start using Cliptool and see how it goes.
Dglider:
Okay, unifying faces.
Before:
After:
To do this just select all of the faces.
(Click the face of one object, then hold shift and click the other faces you need.)
Then just click Unify and Center
So yeah. Thats it.
Good luck!
Wesley Williams:
Cool, I'll add that to the tutorial... I don't have much time right now.
Edit: Added it... I'll explain faces and everything in more depth later... although I'm not going to go far into it. I don't know. I should definitely go over how to use the tools.
Although someone else might want to write up the knife tool, as I've never really understood it :\
