The basic bikini or bra and panty opacity would be mapped something like this (minus the wire frame of course.)

This image was slightly scaled down to fit in the forums. It is only 500 pixels high instead of 512. You will want to make yours 512 x 256 for a fairly detailed texture or if you are making just plain single colored (like black) clothing then you really only need your map and opacity to be 256 x 128 pixels.

Make sure when you create your Texture and Opacity Maps that they are both exactly the same size. Maybe even make the opacity map and then just color over it to make your texture map. This is a common technique that works well.

I've been working on a template for forever and a day, and I hate seams. This is very, very helpful!
