The arm tattoo sleeve I made is showing up on my avi's torso instead of its arm

The arm tattoo sleeve I made is showing up on my avi's torso instead of its arm. It looks awesome quality-wise so I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong with the file format or anything. I clicked new tattoo, made sure it was upper body, but the tattoo attaches to the torso. Used a vector smart UV photoshop template. So frustrating!

 

Yup those are the ones I used!

 

 

Oh my god I forgot to flip it back after editing it.. I'm not an idiot I swear.

Thank you so much!

Hi Trashbrat,

Did you use Robin Wood's templates, placing your tattoos on the top/bottom arm maps at the bottom of the template?

Come back to your question and edit it with your response via "Options" over there on the right. Can you post an image of the erroneous placement?

ETA:

The placement of your tattoo would be consistent with rotating the template 90° CW. A tattoo on the outside of the arm (top arm template) would rotate to cover the front of the torso, just right of center. You can see this in the overlapped composite image below...

I don't know how this would have happened, but it's the most likely (only?) cause I can think of.

ETA2: Of course you're not an idiot. You're just goof like me!

;-)
