I assume those textures are under a license which allows you to use them?
If not, I suggest finding some that are.
To texture things, you need to use a material, which can be found on the wiki.

Lava? Well that would be physics drivers....
Make a meshbox with the texture you want your lava to look like, make a death Physics Driver and A material and put this code:
Code: Select all
material
name lava
addtexture htttp://bla/bla.png
end
physics
name death_lava
death Tank Melted
end
meshbox
name mbox1
position 0 375 0
size 25 25 10
phydrv death_lava
matref lava
end

You should find out what license it is under. If you can't find one, it's almost always under copyright. IIRC, copyright does not have to be stated. Images you find from google images are almost always under copyright, at least that's what I've seen. Try a creative commons search, at
creativecommons.org. Make sure you understand what license the image is under, and the terms and conditions you must follow to use it.

Some useful reading as well, including policies for using the image hosting service:

You need to find out what license the image is released under, and then you need to check if that license allows the redistribution of the image.
It is usually a good idea to credit the creator of the image, even if the license doesn't require it, as well.

If that's all the page says, than you can
not use the images. You would need to contact the copyright owner of the image files and have them agree to allow you to use them under an
OSI-approved license, such as
