Re: Help!! How can I use textures as stained glass?
I have been fiddling with translucency for quite some time but with no success. Could you please enlighten us how you created this semi-transparent glass?
Both png textures were made semi transparent with the GIMP - one from a photo (perspective adjusted and cropped), the other one just from squares and GIMP effects. Same effect can be achieved with other image editors as well.

In addition, transparency was specified in the .mtl file as discussed in this thread: How to import model of a cabinet with transparent glass panel? Just adding transparency in the .mtl file means you do not have to figure out how to do it in Blender or AoI or whatever smile

ok

PS. I fear any advise I would give on how to do this in Blender would be more confusing than enlightening as I keep getting confused myself...
