gif shader idea 2004-05-14 - By Matt Geier

Richard,
I actually think a gif shader would come in handy. At
least for myself. The reason I say this, is when you
create a JPG in photoshop, you cannot create a
"transparent" background, unless you choose the "save
as gif" option. I personally have a project now that
has a stop sign in it, obviously with eight sides, I
have four corners that need to either be transparent,
using gif or I just have to work with. It would be
much easier if I could use a gif and just map the
texture to my octogonal plane, however, that is not
the case and requires much more uv mapping then
originally though.
Just my two cents, if anyone has anything to include,
please do!
thanks,
