So, for all of those people, and for people who are just starting out and want to see what a finished shirt looks like in all of its layers, here you go. If you want more detailed instructions, I've written two tutorials. Both use Photoshop, I'm afraid, since that's the graphics program I use, but you might be able to extrapolate the instructions to your own favorite application.

Alcohol and tobacco companies make billions each year selling their deadly drugs, but the United States continues to suppress marijuana and other marijuana related products due to the government's involvement with the alcohol and tobacco companies.

God created marijuana for all of us, it grows in nearly any environment, and smoking marijuana involves no processing what so ever like Crack, Meth, Cocaine, Heroin, or LSD.

Now we'll make a simple coloured shirt: our first item of actual SL clothing. You make Second Life skins using the same techniques: you just paint skin colours instead of clothing colours. If your Layers dialog is missing, re-create it with Dialog->Layers from your Tutorial Shirt window, or File->Dialogs->Layers from the main Gimp window. You will need it for this lesson. Open your Blended Upper Body Template.xcf file - or whatever you chose to call it. There's an awful lot of information in the Blended Templates (now Tutorial Shirt) file.

Click on the eye symbol for each layer, and watch the Tutorial Shirt window. Clothing and skin designers make a lot of use of this selective visibility of layers. Our goal is to make a new layer, and on that layer, cover each of the UV grids with our favourite colour. So let's start by making a new layer. Move this layer so that it's under the UVs and above the background. Day 181: Creating Clothes with GIMP.
