panel lines are too pronounced

I checked out one of my skins in the game and the colors are fine everything is fine with one exception; The panel lines are too pronounced, they appear on top of everything and are BLACK. It looks like someone traced over my paint job with a fine magic marker. Any suggestions as to how to remedy this?

Re: panel lines are too pronounced

Well, if you are working from a layered template file, then you can just reduce the opacity of the panel line layer to some lower value. You'll have to test back in the game a couple of times to see if you like the effect, and then adjust more or less from there.

If you're not working from a layered template, let me know and I'll check up on that.

Re: panel lines are too pronounced

I am working with a layered template. On the subject of "testing in the game." Is there a way of (after re-sizing with Bright and testing the temlplate in the game) opening the same template in PSP to work on it again. What I do now is make a copy before the bright change testing that template in the game and working on the pre-changed template.

The file Bright produces is no template anymore. It is an ordinary single layer BMP file.
You need to open te original template again, correct the errors and then save it through the Bright proces again to test it.
