Now everything looks great but you can't use those .lifs. So we'll have to make some.
For this you'll need a paint program capable of making .psds. I'll be showing how to make a .psd in Jasc Paint Shop Pro. I think you may be able to find freeware versions of PSP (Paint Shop Pro) but I don't know where. The other main paint program that I know of is Photoshop (but I don't know how to use it).
So hopefully you have PSP and you should see this (not particularly exciting I know)
Open your .bmp texture and click the layer button
You will now get the layer palette. Right click Background and go to properties
You will get this. Rename Layer 1 to TEX and click ok.
