Second life demo skin editing and templates

So you know how sometimes You REALLY want a skin, You have Around 30 Lindens, And the Demo you have on is PERFECT. Well I wrote A tutorial On how I REMOVE Demo lines. I Have Written It out as well as provide The Visual. So Here you Go, I hope it helps :>


Step One: (Obviously) You open your Image, Here I have opened The HEAD Texture.

Step Two: First Things first, (If you have a Skin with the Creators Logo, on the face Somewhere) Grab the Rectangular Selection Tool by pressing M, And select the section of skin exactly OPPOSITE the Area where the logo is. The You will Go to EDIT > COPY, Followed by EDIT > PASTE, Or pressing Ctrl + V. You will then Go to EDIT > TRANSFORM > FLIP HORIZONTAL. Then just move the copied selection of skin over the logo, Make sure it is even, then go to LAYER > Flatten Image.

Step Three: Duplicate the Layer, so you have TWO Head textures.

Step Four: On the FIRST Layer, You will go to FILTER > VIDEO > DE-INTERLACE, You will choose ODD & INTERPOLITION. On the SECOND Layer, You will do the same, But it will be EVEN & INTERPOLITION. Now both layers should have a section of demo lines missing from it.

Step five: Go back to the first layer, Grab your Rectangular selection tool again, And select the area of skin from the top to the bottom where the lines are no longer there. Press CTRL > SHIFT > I and Hit Delete, This will erase the remainder of lines.

Step Six: Go to LAYERS > FLATTEN IMAGE, and save the image as you would anything else, Either as a .PNG or .TGA. Psd files are not accepted.

























Sorry I Kind of Got mixed up, Make sure you FLATTEN the peice of skin that you duplicated too put over the logo. :>
Also Sorry if the images are sort of big. I wanted you to be able to see them with no problems >PALMFACE<
