Im sure I blew the transparency stage, the coff did NOT dissapear....

unfortunately, the trans.jpg is like 944Kb so I cant post it here.

My filesizes have all been outrageous: the original 1950x1950 .png was 4.66M. when I enlarged that to 4000x4000 and pasted 4 crops of it and merged them onto a blank 3000x4000 canvass, I got a 9.83M .jpg, and when I just used the unresized 1950x1950 .png and pasted and merged squares of it onto a blank 3000x4000 canvas saved from adobe as .jpg, ive now got a whomping 14.1M small link chain texture that ive worked with, and used to make the tex and trans map for the coif.

You want I should zip and email to you the transmap I made or is there a way I can reduce its size to post here?

EDIT Im definately doin something wrong...I made a 1024x1024 all black file called test-trans.jpg, loaded it and the coif did not dissapear! does this help diagnose?
