From a quick look at their website, MS Digital Image Pro is just a photo organiser and enhancer and lacks the ability to make images for SL Clothing. Depending on your budget, the program you need is Adobe Photoshop (expensive), Paint Shop Pro (inexpensive), or "The GIMP" (free).
The latest version of Photoshop Elements (inexpensive) may be able to do this as well, but I'm not certain. |

Yes, the latest Photoshop Elements can be used to make clothing for SL. (I made a T-shirt last night with PS Elements 4.0, using my template, just to be sure.)
However, it's not a simple matter to use it, because you can't examine the Alpha channel, which is a very, very helpful thing to be able to do. So, if you already have it, you can certainly use it for making clothing. But I wouldn't recommend buying it for that purpose, I'm afraid. There are a number of inexpensive (or free) alternatives, though. If you are on a PC, I'd just go with the Gimp, if you don't have the cash for Photoshop. (It's a little harder on the Mac, because it only runs in X11, which I personally can't get to run, but that's me.) I'm sure that other people will post with other alternatives, too. ![]() _____________________
