Was wondering if anyone can give me a fairly quick method for exporting a PSP tube file to .tga, maintaining the transparent background. (I purchased a tubes package of plants, and other things that are really nice quality and would like to bring some of them into SL.) I am familiar with Photoshop, it is my weapon of choice, just no so much with PSP and tube files. Thanks in advance for any help!

I got one to work...wooo hooo
Using PSP8
open picture tube
Layers - New Mask Layer - From Image Select "source opacity" option
U now have a Mask
Not quite an Alpha Channel ...
now with mask selected
Layers - Load/Save Mask - Save Mask to Alpha Channel - Change name of Alpha Channel to ummm "Alpha Channel"
File - Save as - Truevision (*.tga)
Done
I check in Photoshop as I find it easier to see the Alpha Channels
Upload to SL and get Alpha'd
