answered Help using PokeDSPic Platinum to change Pokemon SS sprites (FIXED)

[CrystalLink]

I assumed you could just use Tinke but apparently that's not the case. I have to use PokeDSPic Platinum. Whenever i goto import my image, i get an error saying "PNG has to be 8bpp indexed! This image will probably not work.", And then the image appears corrupted. I don't know what im doing wrong. The image I am using is 13 colors plus transparency color, and the dimension is 160x80. If anybody could help me fix this problem, or better yet, tell me another program that is easier to use, please tell me. Thanks

I just replied in the other thread about this so I'm just going to quote it.

Another trick you may try to correct the palette is importing it into a ROM with Tinke. It doesn't matter what you overwrite; just overwrite any RCGN file, and then export the image again. I've had some great success this way.
