I posted a picture where I had made my own DBZ t-shirt that no-one bothered to look at, but oh well. When I did it was more of a guess and check sort of thing. But thats just me. I kept on moving the stuff around till I got it right. I know this isn't the best way to do it, but it works.

If your photomanipulation software has some sort of layers, you can set the above picture as a layer, set the transparency/opacity to about 50% and set it where you want on the original layer. After you have it where you want it, set the transparency/opacity back to the original settings, and save as a JPG for your texture map.

Think everyone has been missing your most basic question. You need to load the texture map for the tee shirt into your paint program to alighn the image on the shirt. This is on the Poser CD, or you can create you own with a utility like UVMapper, which is in the Free Stuff on this site. This bitmap is what wyrwulf refers to above as the "original layer". Then do just as he says... Foxhollow

My utility "GETCOLTX" in the Poser Fun Stuff will make:- (1) mesh texture maps (2) colored texture maps (3) transparency maps from .OBJ files. For (2) and (3) it also needs the .CR2 file.
