Hello All,

Sorry if this question has already been asked/answered elsewhere...I read many posts and did not find the answer.

I am fairly new to building, but have plenty of experience with photoshop and out of world tools etc.

My question is this...

Is there a way or tool, that allows you to see your object before uploading your textures to SL?

For instance, I create a window with alpha channels for transparency, I upload the texture, apply it to my wondow prim, only to find that the texture needs a bit more tweaking....being a perfectionist, I may go through this process a few times till I am happy.

Needless to say at $10L per upload, my building and changing can get pricey...

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Upload to the beta grid for testing purposes. It's free. Hold Shift-G on startup to SL.
