I was trying to input a photograph with an alpha channel into Bryce. Not for texturing purposes but as an element. It is ceramic vase. I FIGURE IT THOUGH!! Bryce does not recognizes alpha channels saved as TIFF file. The photos that load with alpha channel are PSD. file or PNG files. Tiff files render as the photo with a white background instead of the photo with an alpha channel.

Here is what I have been doing.
