FAQ

What is a Texel? According to Wikipedia:

A texel, or texture element (also texture pixel) is the fundamental unit of texture space, used in computer graphics. Textures are represented by arrays of texels, just as pictures are represented by arrays of pixels.

Why do some of the pages say Pixel and some say Texel?

We are using gpix as the base for the website which was designed for selling Pixel advertising. We are slowly replacing pixel with texel but there are some places we haven't had a chance to change yet.

How did the idea come about?

So as I was sitting here in my Mother In Law's house working on coding Farmlands(TM) I thought to myself it sure would be nice if we had some extra money for equipment and maybe an actual office. That won't be till months away from now as being a self funded independent developer we really won't be able to get any of those things till our first game sells some copies. Then it hit me what if I were able to sell people the rights to displaying their images in our game? I remembered reading about the million dollar website a long time ago and thought you know if Alex Tew was able to raise money for college maybe we just might be able to raise some money for our game company. At least enough for some new office equipment.

I've spent the past week working on this crazy idea and here it is. So if you have ever dreamed of having your picture in a video game or feel like helping an indie game developer buy some texels! It sure will be appreciated. Well back to the game.

Sincerely,

Greg Chudecke
