Can you please explain your situation a little more clearly? What were you trying to do? What were you trying to replace? If you were just getting some skins of something off this site you should not have had to replace them with anything! If you were trying to make your own skins then you most likely did something wrong! Try it again if thats the case or try using a different tutorial.

you need to get the DX TOOLS zip from nVidia.com.
the tga's you alter need to have their .DDS equivalents
so ppl can play with texture compression ON.
unzip the DX TOOLS zip and place the folder
into your paint program...ie i use PSP7
so i put the folder into the installation folder.
then when you have your skin,lovingly rendered...in .TGA
format,save it,and re-open it and save as .DDS
making sure (create mipmaps) is on.good luck
