I'm new to blender, be nice... lol I created a simple shirt. While working in edit mode there are seams: http://grabilla.com/02b0b-981beb7b-f4ae-4293-b0fb-1dd5023c32fd.png Is there a way to join these? Or make it so there are NO seams? I created the shirt from the mesh avatar by duplicating it and scaling.

I've made a mesh shirt, I like it! But need some help and have specific questions trying to get it into SL, textured, lighting and also some suggestions/tips on making it better. Would pay someone for some one-on-one screen sharing time so you could see where I'm at and give some direction? Yes I"m new to blender, learning as I go but this is the only way I seem to learn. Email me if you're interested... sixxyangtz@gmail.com

Thank you!!!

Preface... I'm new to Blender! lol So I made my first shirt in Blender. Copy model, scaled a little larger then removed items I didn't want. So I'm at that point where I want to make it more realistic and I tried to Deform/Smooth Vertex while in edit mode and the shirt rips apart at some seams? What have I done wrong? lol Most importantly how do I prevent this?

Email me sixxyangtz@gmail.com if interested. I have a specific male shirt design. I'll pay for full perm. It's a basic male t-shirt but with specifc folds and wrinkles. Email me and I'll share more details. :smileyvery-happy:

Thank you! :smileyvery-happy:

I'm new to making mesh and have been picking at Blender and Maya for fun. I've been making a clothing item from scratch and having fun learning how to do so. I'm using the "med" male standard size model to do this and the question I have is what if I make an awsome shirt and want to make one for all the standard sizes? How do designers make a copy for each size? I'm sure there has to be an easy way and not have to go through all these steps for each size?

I'd like to upload a .bvh file which is a static pose I've made in another program outside of Blender. The purpose is so I can set it as a collision object with the specific pose I made. I'd rather not use Blender to make the pose. Is that possible? I've imported a .bvh file out of curiosity and it comes in as a GIANT funky looking shape, not a default avatar shape. Also its in the T stance, not the pose I origiinally made? I'm a Blender newbie so if there's a tutorial on doing this and you know where its at a link would be cool. Thanks in advance any advise you may have!

So I've been trying to teach myself blender, watched a million+ tutorials and learning as I go. I did create a ameature table cloth I wanted to see what it looks like in SL. I exported it as a collada file and tired to import the mesh in SL for my first time (yes I have went through the mesh questiions and have been approved) but when I upload it just hangs? It tells me how much lindens it's going to cost but it never uploads or takes my lindens? I end up "x"ing out? Again I'm a newbie at this so I'm sure I'm missing a step? Any common questions during the upload process that I'm not doing?

I purchased a premade prim baseball hat that came full rights with shadow maps. I've downloaded the maps and textured them and they look great. However I want to put my store logo on the front of the hat but noticed the shadow maps are scewed so much its difficult for me to put the logo on correctly in photoshop and with my first attempt and upload into SL, the logo looks totally out of wack. I'm sure some of you are reading this and saying "what a newbie" lol Well, I am. But I"d really like to get this figured out. Is there an easy way to do this or is there a specific software I can use to work with the shadow maps easier? Would love any direction you can give me. Thanks in advance.

LL should (if they're not already and I'm just totally out of the loop, cause that very well could be lol) ...should have once a year Awards for "Best in....." to bring different SL residents together, even if its just once a year, sort of like the Grammy's or the Olympics or however they want to display it. There are so many communities that have no clue what the others are doing (or probably even care) but I think it would be cool to have a celebration of residents who have achieved, excelled in the various things offered. i.e. best in builds, best in land, best in blogging, best in RP .... these are just general and could even get broken down further. I think it would introduce new things to others and promote SL business, blogging, etc... Thoughts?

Been using Qavimator for a long time. Opened it up today and it won't allow me to select a body part to adjust just by clicking? Anyone run into this?

Thank you! exactly what i needed!

Know of any tutorials out there showing step by step on making a basic static pose stand vendor? One with arrows on each side for customers to cycle through and when they see one they like they can pay for it?

Where can I get a basic vendor to sell static poses? I've looked on the Marketplace and not seeing any unless I'm just looking in the wrong place? A script would be better but not sure how that would work? Any thoughts?

Call me old fashion but with the mesh revolution here there has been an explosion of saggy pants! I think mostly because designers never really were able to without the options mesh gives. But i'm ready now to move forward and see OTHER cuts! lol Thoughts?

Thank you! :matte-motes-bashful-cute-2:

Thank you so much! :manvery-happy:

I was so excited LL invited me as a guest blogger I failed to credit the 3 pics I had up!

Has the modeling industry died down in SL? Or maybe I just don't get out enough.

Speaking with a guys POV, I think its great esp when guys take the time to blog male fashion. There's not as much out there for us guys so more the better. Am I going to like everything that's blogged? No. But it gives me different options to look at and also gives me different ideas. Thanks for the effort!

A simple t-shirt. I've made a top layer and a bottom layer. I've imported and was able to make a jacket layer using both. They line up correct and it looks great in a jacket layer! :) However, when I go to make the shirt/under**bleep** and underpants layer... there are small spots where it does not line up? Anyone run into this and how to resolve? I've checked both textures and there all areas are well textured correctly. I'm at a loss why it works with a jacket layer just fine, but not the other layers?

Is there a way to move items up or down in your inventory so that the first page displayes a specific desired item for users?

Are there any preferred free video editing software out there, if so what is more preferred? I hate to go to the expense of one when just starting out. Something with a lot of effects would be nice. I use MS Movie but would like to look at others with more features.
