Problem with uploading textures

[gryphonwingblade]

Hi, I was trying to make some textures but when I uploaded them they came out looking bad, when the original file looked good. Here are links to the head I'm working on, there are other files also my body looks just as bad if not worse.

On Computer

In game

Both textures are the same size and I saved it as a PNG file.

Those are compression artifacts. Go to Me > Preferences > Graphics > Hardware and see if Enable texture compression is checked, if so uncheck it and restart the viewer.

Thank you, changing that setting fixed my texture now it loaded the way it looks on my computer.

Your're welcome. It might be that you will notice decreased performance though, depending on your hardware, with that setting turned off.

Second Life does use a lossy compression format for textures, so some sort of artifacting is to be expected even with that setting unchecked.
