[14:18] Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Google your symbol as a transparent" image, perhaps.
[14:19] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): how do I google that?
[14:19] Xirana (xirana.oximoxi): I can do it if someone needs help
[14:19] Xirana (xirana.oximoxi): with gimp is easy...(like Photoshop)
[14:19] Bleu (bleu.oleander): so you can see I've made only one side the image
[14:20] Bleu (bleu.oleander): and the other sides transparent
[14:20] Bleu (bleu.oleander): yes gimp, photoshop etc.
[14:21] Bleu (bleu.oleander): once you texture your prim you can just position anywhere
[14:21] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): so it should be a flat image so it can be put on the rock?
[14:21] Eliza Madrigal: hm.. is it one image for one rock or several of us on one rock, or...?
[14:21] Bleu (bleu.oleander): its easiest on a flat prim, but you can use a sphere or cylindar too
[14:22] Bleu (bleu.oleander): you can have more than one image
[14:22] Bleu (bleu.oleander): or you can share a rock with others
[14:22] Bleu (bleu.oleander): you can place it anywhere
[14:22] Bleu (bleu.oleander): think stone-age being drawing on a rock
[14:22] Eliza Madrigal: ah, okay, that makes sense, ty
[14:23] Eliza Madrigal: thanks for offer of help Xiri, too...
[14:23] Bruce (bruce.mowbray): cool.
[14:23] Bleu (bleu.oleander): really pretty easy once you find your image/symbol
[14:23] Xirana (xirana.oximoxi): hmmm...I have thought a bit more actual :) but probably it would have made sense then too :)
[14:23] Bleu (bleu.oleander): I'm available to help too
[14:24] Bleu (bleu.oleander): just IM me
[14:24] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): so I make a flat prim, make one side the texture images and the other sides transparent?
[14:24] Eliza Madrigal: thanks Bleu. I don't have those other programs but I think I can do something in ipiccy
[14:24] Bleu (bleu.oleander): yes Aph
[14:24] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): kk
[14:24] Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Somehow, we need to get this info out to the others....
[14:24] Bleu (bleu.oleander): it is on the announcement
[14:24] Eliza Madrigal: I'll send a note when posting guardian meeting too
[14:24] Eliza Madrigal: and have taken some photos
[14:24] Bleu (bleu.oleander): but helps to see it
[14:25] Bruce (bruce.mowbray): Good idea, Eliza.
[14:25] Second Life: Bleu Oleander gave you Winter Solstice Celebration Dec 2016.
[14:25] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): can u give me one of those flat transparent prims Bleu?
[14:25] Eliza Madrigal: ty
[14:25] Bleu (bleu.oleander): just rez a prim and make it transparent
[14:25] Bleu (bleu.oleander): then select one side and put the image there
[14:26] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): hmm cant do it here
[14:26] Bleu (bleu.oleander): or just texture the whole prim
[14:26] Bleu (bleu.oleander): and make most of the sides transparent
[14:26] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): nods
[14:26] Bleu (bleu.oleander): use the slider on the edit window
[14:26] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): select face, transparent
[14:26] Bleu (bleu.oleander): yep
[14:26] Bruce (bruce.mowbray): or... just Google a "transparent" image of whatever your symbol is.
[14:26] Eliza Madrigal: we can go downstairs if that would be helpful, too.... no recorder here anyway
Tips!
[14:27] Bleu (bleu.oleander): you can google line drawings too
[14:27] Bleu (bleu.oleander): and then just drop out the background
[14:27] Bleu (bleu.oleander): that's how I got the cat on this sample
[14:27] Eliza Madrigal: drop out?
[14:28] Bleu (bleu.oleander): in gimp or photoshop
[14:28] Bleu (bleu.oleander): you can select the background color and delete it
[14:28] Zen (zen.arado): that's the tricky part
[14:28] Bleu (bleu.oleander): and save image as .png
[14:28] Bleu (bleu.oleander): its easiest if you have a solid background
[14:28] Eliza Madrigal: hm, interesting.... yes it does seem tricky.. will have to play in ipiccy and see what features it has
[14:29] Bruce (bruce.mowbray): I'd be happy to help, Aph.
[14:29] Eliza Madrigal: but the rest is pretty straight forward
[14:29] Bruce (bruce.mowbray): and so would Bleu.
[14:29] Bleu (bleu.oleander): if all else fails, you can send me your image and I'll drop the background out for you ... smiles
[14:29] Xirana (xirana.oximoxi): I usually select the background and use the eraser
[14:29] Bleu (bleu.oleander): can do that too
[14:29] Zen (zen.arado): lots of images hve copyright writing on them :(
[14:30] Bleu (bleu.oleander): easy if you find a black line drawing on white background
[14:30] Eliza Madrigal: good tips
[14:30] Zen (zen.arado): oh I can use snip tool
[14:30] Bleu (bleu.oleander): lots don't tho Zen
[14:30] Bleu (bleu.oleander): and you can always draw your own and photograph it
[14:31] Bleu (bleu.oleander): I photographed the object at the top against a white background

[14:39] Eliza Madrigal: never know what is helpful to someone or interesting etc
[14:40] Mickorod Renard: well, there is a fair bit on falling off motorbikes
[14:40] Eliza Madrigal: I think it is hard to do a book discussion unless others are also reading

[14:40] Eliza Madrigal: :)
[14:40] Mickorod Renard: I do have a notecard prepped each time and time allowed to read it
[14:41] Mickorod Renard: it worked at least twice
[14:41] Mickorod Renard: but by and by I am just holding on for Ewans return
[14:41] Bertram Jacobus: about what were the notecards mick - if i may ask ?
[14:42] Mickorod Renard: the sidhartha stories are well in line with our other studies
[14:42] Bertram Jacobus: both about siddhartha ? :-)
[14:42] Eliza Madrigal: yes, I did like it the one time and found it easy to digest to talk about right away, but not always the case
[14:42] Aph (aphrodite.macbain): starting poiunts for discussion
[14:42] Mickorod Renard: yes bert, in effect we are doing like a book read club from the website bodhitales
[14:42] Bertram Jacobus: ok. nice. sounds good and interesting. ty :-)
