0 Knowl Paine Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Have you tried Rebaking your avatar? Did you recently update your Viewer, or, did Auto-update update the Viewer? Some of your Graphic setting, or hardware settings may have been deselected. On your computer, have you updated the Drivers for your Graphic card? http://community.secondlife.com/t5/English-Knowledge-Base/Troubleshooting-avatar-appearance/ta-p/1256955 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Ry0ta Exonar Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Additionally that happens when you use temp textures, but if you used a normal texture for that tops, the texture may be missing for some reason. Check if the texture is in your inventory. If it is, you can apply it to the tops again. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 iCade Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 When you upload textures as 'temporary' you may not pay a fee, but the texture vanishes from your inventory once you log out. So always make sure that once you're happy with the texture as is, to pay the 10L to upload it for real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Chic Aeon Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 My money is on the temp texture which actually can be viewed for much longer than when you log out (for me anyway, I tested ) I sometimes get garments from designers who have forgotten to replace the temp texture with the good one. If it isn't the temp texture and rebaking doesn't work (you used to get the look you have much more often in the olden days), then you may need to clear you cache. While I follow the "don't clear you cache unless you REALLY need to" rule (Firestorm), I recently had a texture I had uploaded a year ago turn gray for me. A friend had the same problem at the same time. She could still see her texture file and just put it back up on the vendor. I couldn't see my profile picture -- even the texture which I still had -- but others could. I cleared my cache and all was back to normal. So at least three possibilities to look at.
