    No worries, if you can show me how to delete the other two, I'll do that. Thanks Edit: I just didn't know which section this issue would really apply to, so I posted it in two other sections. However, if there is a way to actually delete these threads. I'd be happy to do that too.

    Hi All, I'd like to share an issue I have been having - which may have been for a long time but never noticed until recently - I have already contacted support regarding this and have yielded no answers as all the suggestions the support specialist has suggested do not work. So I am posting this on the forums to see if someone has suggestions or has experienced a similar issue. I may share this on a few of the other sections here on the forums as I am unsure where to post this. I have been a premium member for almost two years. And I have always had a first and last name because my account was created before last names were switched to Resident. I had not contemplated a name change until recently as I now want my first name in-world avatar's name to match my SL Facebook name. My avatar's first name in world is actually the word "No" ( please don't ask, I was young and dumb when I first created my account, hehe ). Sometimes people have trouble finding my avatar name in search inworld, and it gets confusing, so I figured I would toy with the idea of changing that first name. Anyway, each time I click on the "Change Name" tab in the drop-down menu, as shown below: I receive the error page shown below. I have displayed the url and the actual page that shows up. As you can see in the top right corner is says "Login", However, I am already logged into the home page/dashboard. Even when I click that "Login" button, I get popped back to the home page/ dashboard and it automatically appears as if I am logged in again to the dash board. The support specialist that was helping me suggested I log out and log back in and try again - I have done that - but, I am still getting this server error page. Has anyone experienced this? How have you been able to resolve this issue? Does the change name feature only work for some premium users and not all? My current membership is the Premium - Annual Membership. Thank you for your help and any suggestions.

    WOW Thank you for the responses! Sometimes I upload PNG anyway, depending on the object it will be applied to, jpg is no friend of detail and tga has it's moments. I figured the reason why this happens is because, sometimes the texture I am working on has many layers, so when I save from that psd file and save as png, it comes out like the above in SL, but if I "copy merge" and paste in a new window on top of a white/or black background I can get away with uploading png. @ChinRey thank you for sharing the way to do it in gimp! I hope someone finds that helpful in the future ❤️

    Thank you, aw that is what I have been using as a "fix" or jpg but, it ruins the quality of the texture.

    Hello everyone, I usually have a fix for this, and my "fix" is probably not the conventionally way. I was wondering if anyone can explain to a blender newbie why my mesh models always appear transparent when I apply a png texture to it? I always recalculate normals and when I save the bake, it is normally saved as "png". Please help, thank you in advance

    I get what you're saying and that's the general attitude around SL. Most designers or content creators do not have the time or energy to teach. My point is, if we're going to complain about how things look in world ( as experts ) do so with the intent to mentor or "teach". And some point it starts to just looks like bullying if you're nitpicking at newbies as a master of the craft. I hope my point is clear and not being misunderstood but, if it is, no offense taken, we can agree to disagree.

    Who is teaching the "basics" to beginners? Let's not pretending the learning curve for blender is pretty high. It took me well over 6 months to learn how to create some basic things, from watching tutorials and trying things out myself, there aren't too many other creators within the SL community willing to "teach". And newbies like me and others are left to figure it out ourselves, of course the outcome of that will be creating whatever we want however we want. I have been more mindful about polycounts but, my process has not been perfect and while I am already my worse critique it just sucks that there is no one in world that I can go to, to say; hey can you help me out with such and such... I have to figure out the answers myself. And everyone just acts like you're out to steal knowledge, thats why I don't bother and just do my own thing. Either you guys complain about new mesh creators or you talk to us and tell us what the right way to do stuff is...

    I really needed this! Thank you for sharing!

    Hi Kyrah! Thank you for the response. Where can I find the tutorial you mentioned? And yes, I ending up triangulating it in blender before uploading it to SL because, as you said, if I didn't control the way it was done blender would mess the entire thing up, even after using the insert tool and creating more vertices. I am happy with the end result but, I would definitely improve on a number of things as I go on.. It was a nice project. Thank you all for the responses ❤️
  15. Daisy Starlight
    Thank you so much! I literally just figured out a solution. Hopefully this carries on all the way into the rigging process *fingers crossed* because, now that you've mentioned it, that may have been why it looked weird when I uploaded it after the last rig but, I thought that was because of the geometry. I wanted to split the heart in two as you suggested ( which I did try ) but, I got a little nervous that it would affect re-baking later on so I ended up using the insert tool which seems to fix the profile all together! HAHA! Thank you for your response!!! ❤️ P.s! I had to look at how the mesh uploader triangulated it by doing CrtL + Shift + R to realize what I was truly doing wrong, so I triangulated it in blender and then subdivided and wouldn't you know it fixed it too but, then I had a ton of vertices so, I had to scratch that solution hehe. #NewbieBlenderDiaries hahaha

    Hello Everyone, I really wanted to cut down on the number of vertices this heart would have and after doing so, it won’t upload right on SL when I export it with avastar. However, when I use the regular exporter, it seems to work fine which is not necessarily of any advantage to me because, I plan on rigging it and I would need to export it using the avastar option once that is done ( I tested that using the previous model before making additional adjustments to it ). How can I fix it? Should I add additional vertices to the “V” area of the heart? Also, I baked some test textures and they won’t apply correctly on account of this issue. Please help.
