This bundle is marked as useful / simple. Simplicity is bliss, low effort and/or may contain minor bugs.
I am more familiar with the Map Editor side but from time to time I also doodle something with Gimp and this time I actually finished something so I decided to share it.

Feedback and comments are welcome.

I know the filesize is huge and I have no idea how to reduce it so suggestions and tips are very welcome.

Changelog:
1. Uploaded
2. Optimized filesize

Nice, quite useful, but the preview picture is a bit misleading imo.

I think it shows night time, doesn't it ? Maybe switch to day time.

Well, I myself would take a template or create a little terrain using the tile, to show its great use.

By the way, maybe change its name to SoilDirt, it sounds more professional than 'terrain, ground, dirt, soil, earth'

It is indeed quite high for a tile.
You can use the BLP Lab to reduce its quality and to unbelievable reduce the file size without greater quality loss.

You reduce the file size by using the 'file format options' when converting.

Well, there is nothing wrong with having a HQ-Tile, but I would rather recommend to upload the LQ one and attach the HG to the first post of yours adding an information about it in the upload description.
