Hi all i have a small problem when i alpha a texture, i m using PSP X2 and trying to make soemthing similar to how a car is built. On the edges after i alpha the texture i get a really abrupt white outline that sticks out a mile when i upload it into SL. I upload it as a TGA by the way. Can anyone tell me how i get shot of the white outline before i break my computer :) Thanks

Read the article at the top of this forum, labeled "Transparency and Alpha Channels: The Definitive Guide". The info you want is talkig about how to eliminate the "halo effect".

That article goes into it in great depth, for a number of applications.
