BMP files?

Frank7350 · 03-06-2003, 06:41 PM

I just started trying to make my own logos, (inspired by PClines hats!), and I have a question...some of the fiels I've downloaded to alter are in .GIF format....when I rename the edited file as logox.bmp and place it in the game, a box pops up and says that the file may be unusable.....Then it doesn't show up in the game...Any ideas?

Thanks.

You need to convert the files to .bmp using a paint package like Paintshop Pro. Just renaming them from .gif to .bmp doesn't alter them.

I made them in photoshop...could I convert them from there?

After you make your logos, choose "File" - "Save As" - then give it a name and be sure you set file type to "bmp"

This should solve your problem.
