Model Viewer Help Please

Post by Ambrey »

Hey all, I posted on the "Help With Sig" post the other day but didn't get any responses. So I am hoping with this new post to get some of those out there using Model Viewer to help me. Ive made a few models that id like to use for a new sig but I cant figure out how to save my model as a jpeg file. Everytime I try to save it, it puts it in a format that dices the pic up by sections then places it somewhere I cannot find it :( Any kitty out there know what I am doing wrong? Any useful tips on how to use the model viewer to make a sig or pic would be appreciated 8) Thank you ahead of time for those who take the time to read and post. :D

You can change your setting to "copy to clipboard", then when you hit f11, all you need to do then is open up your image editing program, and hit ctrl+v, and you're done ^^.

By the way, I'm currently writing a little tutorial about sig-making, and the model viewerrr, so expect that soon.

Probably because jpegs are compressed, and their algorithm might just be messed up. Besides, if you're going to be using images captured in the model viewer for using that character in a sig with a different background, you don't want the edges of the character to be blurred or colors reduced by compression. You should always save as a filetype that is uncompressed for that kind of work... BMP works well. What really matters is that the final image is saved as something viewable in web browsers (jpg, gif, png... png is the best option, IMO).

Good luck!
