[Problems after logging in to Second Life with Firestorm viewer]

Will try the Configure Surround setting changes, thank you!  

[Problems after logging in to Second Life with Firestorm viewer]

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!!

[Problems after logging in to Second Life with Firestorm viewer]

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

[Problems after logging in to Second Life with Firestorm viewer]

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!   My computer specs:

[Backgrounds blurry in closeups]

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!

[Using Gimp to add drop shadows]

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:

 

[Using Gimp to add drop shadows]

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!

 

[Using Gimp to add drop shadows]

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.  

[Using Gimp to add drop shadows]

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!

[How to apply drop shadows in Gimp]

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,

[Naked with mesh]

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.  

[why does inventory fetch every time i log]

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!

 

[Black Screen]

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!

I was running SL on Firestorm Beta and had no issues, only when I downloaded Firestorm Release.  Thanks.  

[When I try and log in it says I SL cannot be accessed from my computer?]

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

[ok I tryed to long in on my laptop but is says that sl could not login into this PC]

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???
