I have scheduled the Basic Clothing for Non-Professional Artists (professionals can come too ;) ) for April 6th at 1:00PM SLT or 3:00 PM CDT. If needed I will try to schedule an evening class later in the month.

As always, the course includes the info listed below. I have also added a pictorial on taking an article of clothing from start to finish using PhotoShop and Daz Studio screen shots.

The course objectives are that by the end of the session new residents will understand:
SL Avatar model and use of UV maps (templates)
Making a template suit for avatar and taking photos of avatar for reference
Where to get UV Maps/templates
Using layers
What is and using the Alpha channel
Using patterns & textures in the design
Saving to the correct format
Uploading texture file

Please note: This is not a course on how to use your graphics program. Student must already know the basics of PhotoShop, Corel Paint Shop Pro or GIMP.

URL’s to some basic clothing templates/patterns will be provided to help the new designer get started.
