OK, so I downloaded the mainsail template and somehow made a nice mainsail of my very own. However I would like a template for the Spinnaker if that's possible. Why? I'd like to have all the seams and so forth you would find on a real sail. With just a graphic it looks kinda cheesy.
Is one available somewhere?

Hi Ravishal. I never made the default Tako 3 spinnaker texture publicly available. It isn't that great looking, anyway - I couldn't find a decent photosource for a spinnaker.
I wonder if anyone else has a spinnaker template they'd be willing to share?

Spinaker Texture
09-02-2006 07:51
I just took a rectangular flag image and inserted it twice as spinnaker is in two pats and pops up as a nice Australian flag. I think the program will shring or enalrge as nessarrary, within reason, my image was 66 x 130 pixels, which is a low res download from the internet, but appears good in game.
Cheers
Ricus

Ps My hull texture size was 510 x 510 saved on a white background
and saved as a BMP file with text at top and repeated at bottom upside down.

...texture file formats...

...textures generally translate into SL's internal format best if they're a lossless source, such as bmp or tga, at a resolution of 128, 256, 512, 1024, or 2048 in either dimension...just so you know, if you want to keep your spinnaker texture as clean as possible...
