I have been making skins at a furious rate to populate my shop (Planet Krypton, in Alpha Centauri, plug plug), and with every one I make I learn a little more. The problem I am having right now concerns a pair of boots that have a white stripe down the front which continues all the way down to the toe.

No matter what I do, I cannot get the stripe on the leg to line up with the stripe on the shoe. It's driving me crazy! The latest thing I tried was uploading the UV maps as a texture and wearing it like clothes, to get a clearer idea of how the avatar deforms the lines so I could compensate, and that got me a little closer.

But I was wondering if anyone had any tips/tricks. Because I've got more boots to make, and I'm so annoyed I don't even want to try right now.
