The problem comes when you are working against a deadline (whether it was set by someone else or by you) and you can't find what you want and have to settle for what you can find quickly.

If you don't have serious time constraints, keep looking...you'll find it eventually.

Well, its on my resolution list to get at least one of them done before the end of the year. I tried making them once, but at the time there weren't pictures available so I tried to take a shot of my television screen while I was viewing the window in-game. And before Christmas I bought one of those video capture cards and made video of the gameplay, but the problem was the game developers had put the support posts of the room right in front of every other window. I could jump on this ledge on the post and view the window from there, but the problem was I was so close to the window that I could view the whole thing in one shot. So I viewed it in sections and when I made screen shots from the video I had to piece together some of those windows. But no matter how much I skewed and resized I couldn't get any of those pieces to make a full window (would take another paragraph to describe exactly why...boring!) Luckily, I found pictures of the windows (save two, but those were ones that weren't in sections) on ZeldaWiki. So its like "Yay! I'm past where I was stuck before!" And I don't want to let up because I promised myself I would finish at least one before the new year.
