  • Hey, I have a question. When I've made the render, it automatically saves it as an XCL file, which I'm assuming is the ideal one for it to be saved as. But when I try to upload this to 'tintypic.com' it won't let me. I basically want to post the image I've rendered with no accursed white box around it. If I change the filetype to PNG or anything like that though, a white box appears regardless of me having rendered it. Can you give me any advice here?

  • @INTYfromDQ OHhh... I guess that white box is there but if you use it in a image editing program it's not there... I mean the white box is there to show you that there is transparency in the image ;)

  • @AgentOrenji Do you have any recommended image editing programs?

  • @INTYfromDQ Hmm... I only use Gimp. Sorry couldn't help much ;( I am just a beginner to image editing xDD

  • Thanks.

    Very helpful

  • @dukez9204 No Prob :D

see all
