I myself am using Paint.NET and a little Photoshop - but most things I do in Photoshop can also be done in Paint.NET - or Gimp alternativly.

@Ozhara, well I clearly see your point. My idea with this terrain pack (work in progress) is mostly to complement the other textures. I wasn't aware that dead farms were often used in scenarios though...
Anyway, I think I'll stick to doing textures for random maps. Can you btw suggest a good program (free/ open source) to use?

Just one hint for dead farms - several map do use spots of dead farm terrain to diversify dirt areas.

With the default terrains this is no problem, as the dead farm terrain is mostly the same color as dirt, just with some different elements.
So creating dead farms that are not in line with dirt will 'break' those areas and make them looks strange. I myself started redoing the dead farms in all my terrain packs to fix this issue some time ago.
