Eyelashes on skins

Ive been trying to make some skins and have been working on the face for a while now. And while I can do the face makeup just fine, I cannot for the life of me, get the eyelashes to look right. I've looked all over the CMFF templates I have to see if there is a spot to color them and either Im missing something, or Im not doing something right cause the lashes keep showing up as either a white, or the skin color. Im trying to get them black.

Can anyone help me on this? Am I missing something?

Have you looked in the upper right corner of the face template? I think that funny thing that looks sort of like a comb is the eyelashes.

Aha! I just found it. I had one of the old templates and it didn't have the lashes on it. I feel silly now. Thanks though :)

I am having the same white eylash problem.
Now I know why...I have the old face templates too.

Where can I locate the new ones?

You can download mine from my website here (they show the eyelashes.)

But, honestly, all you need to do is make the top right hand corner the color you want the eyelashes. They use most of the space that's not on the head up there. So, if you just avoid getting too close to the head (allow 5-10 pixels on a 1024 map before reduction,) you'll cover the eyelashes.

You need to keep the upper right transparent or else you'll end up with solid bars instead of eyelashes. If you want to color them something other than black, color in the eyelash outline but leave everything else in the corner transparent. :)
