I've just started seeing this over the last couple of days.

If I zoom into my avatar (actually it doesn't have to be that close) then bits of her become transparent, and there are some odd artifacts too.

Is anyone else is seeing this? If not I'll post some pics, it's very odd.

I had a time where my skirt part was transparent for no apperent reason and the others could see it too.

This has been an issue for a while with the avitar vertex redering. Zooming close has caused this since before I can remember, the root cause of it is at this point unknown.

Hmm, it seems new to me. a couple of weeks ago I spend a few days skin shopping and I'm sure I would have noticed it then. Also I always have to adjust necklaces after buying and that needs close up work so I would have spotted it last week.

But I've only just noticed it...unless I'm incredibly unobservant. Maybe something else could have changed.

Ah, it seems to have been a driver problem. I tried wine(eek!) and it did the same.

Reinstalling the driver seems to have cured it.
