Transparency issue with the text
by Warren Puzo on Jul 26, 2009

Great tutorial, I do alot of 3D, so this plugin would save me tons of time with setting up a particle system and rendering out something like this. But, I noticed that the "RED GIANT" text is transparent when you put another layer behind it. Is there anyway to make it solid?
