My how things have changed with the look!

Will try the Configure Surround setting changes, thank you!

No I haven't messed with any other debugs. I tried all that was suggested, now I am getting this error message while logged in: NVIDEA OpenGL lost connection with display driver due to exceeding Windows time-out limit. Error Code 7. Plus I am still getting intermittent mouse freezing up. This computer is only a little over a year old (Alienware X51). Don't know what else to do! Thanks!!

Thank you all for suggestions, going to try each of them to see if they fix the problem!

For the past three weeks, I have had issues with my screen freezing up after I log in to SL. Normally the message error is " display driver has stopped responding and had recovered". Sometimes my mouse will freeze up as well. All of my drivers are current. I had a computer guy come out this week to look at it and he downloaded updated BIOS, but evidently that didn't fix the problem. I need help, I don't know what else to do!

When taking closeup photos, my background, whatever it may be, appears blurry. I use Firestorm 24880. The size of my snapshot is set at 5000 x 2578, checked constrain proportions, image quality is 100 and on capture colors. Suggestions on getting a clear background? Thanks! Trey Melody

Thanks to all for your help. I am going to keep trying and I WILL prevail. I don't give up easily :matte-motes-agape:

That is what I am trying to accomplish - separate the avatar from the brick wall, but every time I try, it fails. I am sure I am doing something wrong, just not sure what! Thanks!

Thanks, but I have looked at TONS of videos and none of these apply. I want the drop shadow to appear near the floor and still keep my wall.

I am a Gimp user and have been for a couple years. I want to apply a drop shadow on an image that has a background of a brick wall. I have viewed Photoshop tutorials that do the same and there should be a way that Gimp can do something similar. I am aware I have to do layering, and I am not using text so that doesn't apply. Attaching a photo to show what I want - drop shadow of avatar. Can anyone help please? Thanks!

I am a Gimp user and am trying to apply a drop shadow on am image with a background (such as a wall). I want to keep the background image. How do I apply a drop shadow to the "person" to appear more natural? I have searched and searched the internet for tutorials and most everything takes away the background image. Please help! I would like detailed instructions or a video tutorial that I can use. Thanks, Treycee Melody

Why do I appear naked (on the torso at least) while wearing mesh? I am using Firestorm Release 24880. I don't see myself that way nor does anyone else that uses a viewer that supports mesh, but those that don't use the mesh supporting viewer sees me partially naked.

I have not changed any settings under my preferences, but lately, every time I log, I get a notice that my cache is empty and inventory is fetching. What can I do to keep that from happening? Thanks!

I downloaded the new Firestorm Release (ver 3.2.2.24336) but when I go to log in, the screen is black. Can't even close out without having to use the task manager. Help! Microsoft Windows Vista Version : 6.0.6002 Service pack 2 Build 6002 Toshiba Satellite L305D Processor: AMD X2 dual core Mobile RM-70, 2000 Mhz Graphics: ATI Radeon 3100 I was running SL on Firestorm Beta and had no issues, only when I downloaded Firestorm Release. Thanks.

I got the same response and nothing has changed for me!

I get the very same response - can't log in to this computer. Nothing has changed for me, I have not used another computer since starting SL almost 2 years ago and no one else knows my PW. What is going on???
