I have to admit the biggest PITA was the Semi Transparency of those wings, in that mod. Just a little history on that image of the Dragon Book. In my EQ1 UI I converted the images to DDS when SoE first started supporting it on EQ1. Where things started getting Sticky, was on my Old EQ1 UI, that image was made up of 4 quadrant images. I had to put all 4 images together as one image. That's where things started getting all messed up. When I stitched the images together so to speak, I lost the Alpha Channel. As Quib stated in a previous post I had to re-do the Alpha Channel for the New Image. What you see in my post above is the final results after allot of trial and error on that image.

One question for everyone how important is it to save the 8 Level Mip Maps, the actual image I use in the UI is showing all 8 Mipmaps in it. Do I really need to save it with all of those or just the Main 1 which is 512x512 Pixels?
