Hi - I'm making clothes for the first time, and I'm noticing that for example, when I make a skirt, the texture stretches between the knees when I get it onto the avatar. When the templates are on my avatar, the same thing happens. Is there a way to avoid this? Thanks!

Hi Zizzer Unfortunately this can't be avoided. It's due to the fact that the SL avatar model is made of relatively few polygons that have to deform into every possible shape. Some polygons get very few pixels of the texture and look smeared or stretched as a result. After a while you'll start to get a good idea of the problem areas. You just need to avoid putting detail in those areas, or adjust the scale of your texture pattern in high stretch areas.
