cyfishyThe lovely and talented Natalia Zelmanov did a tutorial on how to create textures for SL using the PNG format instead of Targa (a new development I wasn't even aware of until reading that tutorial!)
The beauty of it is, you can create transparency without futzing around with Alpha Channels. It also seems to avoid the infamous 'white halo' effect. (Don't quote me on that just yet, tho--it's hard to tell on my pale skin!)
I gave it a try, on some glitch pants for the water dress I'm still working on.
It worked. Perfectly.
/me laughs maniacally.
THE POWER IS MINE!!!!!
