Upload Preview Problem

Hi,

I don't know if I'm doing something very obviously wrong - I tried following the basic texturing tutorial, at the moment I'm just trying to preview the Second Life t-shirt that comes with the templates, but I'm getting a weird result, as seen below.

I am using Paint Shop Pro 8, which I am not terribly familiar with, but the only difference I have found from reading up on it is that I don't have the option to save as 32 bit .tga. I can't increase the colour depth any more, the alpha channel looks fine, and neither of the layers are locked.

This same thing happens whatever I try to preview, even a plain texture with no alpha.

Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this??

Thanks,
Amanita

Are you running SL in a secondary monitor?

No, there's nothing strange about my setup. I don't know the details of what's recommended for SL tho. I have a Radeon 9800 graphics card, if that makes a difference. It has support for a secondary monitor, but I've never used that.

Having checked again just now, it appears this is now working for me since the update - I presume the problem was fixed in this most recent version. I hope it's working now for everyone who had this issue.
