Re: shadow from png texture?pls help!
You need to create a transparency map. Using your .png image as a basis, in Photoshop, create the transparency map so that the transparent bits are black and the non-transparent are white and then insert this in the transparency slot in the diffuse material editor.

Pngs are much more likely…I’m still not sure what’s gonna happen with tiffs.
