Sorry, I knew I forgot something! Im saving them as .bmp images and it does bring up the save configuration box, Ill try what you suggested, thanks!
EDIT: I just tested what you said but even when I save it as 24-bit or 8-bit (the only other two options besides auto-detect) it still doesnt show up. Im extremely confused now
EDIT2: sorry I was using the wrong image, changin it to 24 bit does work!! thanks for the help
