is there way to make textures for 3d models in Photoshop? I always thought how much better I could make textures if I didn't have to UV map them.

hi Blah11
I don't fully understand your question. Do you want to create tileable textures from photos in photoshop, texturing and painting in photoshop, or uv unwarping the mesh and painting the map in photoshop? the first two are possible but the second one i'm not very experienced with it because photoshop can ask for a lot of memory for this, so i can just help with the first one. the third one it's not possible in sketchup. the best you can do is using projection texturing in sketchup by exporting the front and left views from the mesh in jpg and painting your texture in photoshop so you can aply it to the mesh in sketchup using projection texturing (i use a technic like these in these images http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=81&t=19269&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=plastic+surgery , see the 3rd image with original image from the mesh, the photo, and final painted photo to the map).
