I was editing the raider skin, and when I was going to edit the alpha channel, I noticed it was gone from the list!


I use photoshop 7.1...Can someone help me?

you could just create a new alpha channel.

Make sure you did the skin in .tga format. In .jpg and .bmp, alpha channels are removed (those format's don't ever have alpha channels, i belive), so you'd have to make a new one, re-add team color, ect. :////

Something you *may* be able to do is just CnP from what you did and copy it into the raider skin in a different formant (im pretty sure that works, but it sometimes loses quality); or you could change what you have in .jpg to .tga (not sure what program you'd use for that) and CnP the alpha channel back in after creating a new one. CnP'ing what you did, though, would probably be the fastest. I've had this happen on an icon I made after spending about and hour on it :////

Make sure you keep in mind that, unless you saved it as a quite high-quality .jpg, the skin will lose some quality in the areas you paste into.

NECRON-Don't double post, use the ever so magical EDIT button. It does wonderous things like maybe, just maybe, edit your post. Think about it.
