[photography what settings to use]

This is true for almost anyone

Resolution: as high as your PC will handle

then, use the snapshot tool with the Save to Disk option

keep Aspect Ration checked and type in a value. the other will adapt to it

See how high you can go without crashing - I go 6016x3227 because SL won't let me go higher.

[What is everyone's thoughts about mesh clothing?]

I would have to agree.

I love mesh and am buying it, but it doesn't work for everything. While I'm used to changing my shape, most times my shape isn't even visible - the concept of alpha layer hides it. As a model I've spend long hours tuning my shape to make it the way I want.

I appreciate designers who make several sizes - but you would think a mesh outfit would adapt to a mesh avatar.

And the whole alpha bit is rather annoying especially if you have 2 mesh pieces worn.

There are some issues, but I think it will be a new part of what we wear, not a replacement. So far I'm having fun with it !
