Anyone here that's an expert on GIMP? I can make the whole cam screen transparent. But how do I leave gridlines with image detail (AF-C, 447, RAW, 1/80 F3.5, ISO AUTO) as it is and only make the black screen transparent?

Thanks and no problem!
I use Photoshop, for the most part. In this case, I used the Quick selection tool > inversed the selection and layer masked out what was there originally > downloaded a free viewfinder for the corner frames > added them with smaller versions for the center > Then typed out the metrics with a similar font (Bebas) to what was already there.
Probably a little easier explained than done, but that's the process.
Thanks, much appreciated. I tried inverse selection and color selection but it didn't work. I am going to look into viewfinder, learnt something new todayThanks and no problem!

There should be a few free ones out there. Not sure if the terminology of viewfinder is accurate for a DSLR, though.
As for the selection part, it's pretty quick and could be fixed up a bit more. The process of adding text and such should be relatively simple, though.

Looks like simple clipping from what I can tell. Click on the shirt in the Scene Pane > Parameters > Select the shirt > Find "Loosen Arms" or "Adjust Arms", and then do the same for the torso/chest.
Thanks a lot, that worked like a charm. I didn't know I could do that. Just one more question, what's clipping?

Collision with another object. In this case the skin/body...

Along with it, keep in mind that after posing, you can hide the body parts to save you some vram. That take cares of clipping as well. Use this as a cheat code.

It doesn't really alter VRAM much, if at all. You're better off with a scene optimizer run and some culling.

Well, technically, it's the hands and the head that have the most polygons, but if one needs to save every tiny bit of vram, then why not? Environment is a different ball game all together, and only to a certain extent can scene optimizer help.

I mean, if someone is that tight on VRAM, I won't stop them. But it's largely a waste of time for what effectively amounts to 100MB of VRAM, at most. Scene Optimizer, deleting objects or replacing them simpler assets (simpler = less VRAM needed.) or even PBR textures, and culling will go a lot further than hiding limbs.
Point is, it just doesn't make a lot of sense.
Hi all
Could someone please explain what's going on with the red line in the corner of the eyes in this render please? It dosn't seem to show in the viewer, just in the render.

Yeah, it’s still there’ I think I’ve worked out what I’ve done though. I tried to add ‘Lickalicous’ and I couldn’t get the material on the tongue to work, and while messing about I did something to the material on the main model’s skin. I pressed back and that seemed to work, but I’ve just checked with my saved base model and it doesn’t happen to that, so something must have stuck.
Thanks for the response and thought
You mean if I click on the eye icon to hide it and click to show it again that should sort the clipping thing?
I am trying to use this veins texture on my G8F character's breasts. I've been playing around with "Diffuse overlay weight" dials under surface tab in Daz and it seems to get the job done but every time I crank up the dial it adds more pinkish color to it and ruins it. I am not a Photoshop or GIMP expert but how do you modify this texture image file and only keep the blue veins but remove skin and pink color (add transparency)? Thanks!
Greetings, does anyone know which female model is the one in the image, including the hair?
thanks in advance.
