Hey guys.
As you can probably tell, i'm very new to skinning, but i'm proficient enough to be able to recolour just about everything without too many problems.

However, i've recently tried creating a new alpha and texture (a set of scars) to use as makeup, and when trying to import them back into bodyshop, it simply says that the files are incorrect. I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong, but since it's my first time mucking with the alpha, I'm probably missing something.

I've tried looking at tutorials, and they can't help with my problem specifically. If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated!

Thank you!

What's the exact text of the error you are getting?
Did you change the size/resolution of the files?
Did you change the format of the files? If you are using BodyShop, the files have to be *.bmp, not any other format.
