Again, as with the Insanes tutorial.
Don't sacrifice clarity. You may also invest some time into proper cropping.
Read my tut and possibly use thumbs.

Thumbnails mean the front/initial pages is under 100k no matter what its content. Full sized images and the initial page could be several hundred k even optimized.
I am on 56k and am championing its cause.
I have problems doling out 10's but i honestly feel that with the effort involved with creating any type of a tutorial that an 8 is baseline.
It would have to be totally useless to not score an 8 and if it IS THAT USELESS, then the admin shouldn't have authorized it.
So, an 8/10 is a fair score IMO.

Wasn't this well-enough explained in ferret's tutorial on angled textures?

Yeah, that tutorial covers it already imho - besides, it's texTures, not texures.

Nice little trick. Didn't know that one. Until now i used to torture myself by using the texture manipulation tool on each side which, of course, took alot of time and effort.

I heard there was a tutorial on that already on snarkpit. I don't know how to rate this tutorial cause I've seen this tutorial many times... and it's always the same.
Anyway, if you only press the right mouse button the texture's attributes are copied to the other face without aglining, can be usefull sometimes.
I have many tips but I never thought of submitting them as tutorials.
