Firstly, there are a few keys between "m" and "Shift"... try using them a bit more...
Next, most of the time when you begin, its just trial and error. Make inscriptions or images on the skin and save it. Look at ingame. Check where the images come up. Learn where images put in 2d (in Photoshop) end up in 3d (ingame). Then when you edit your skins, edit them accordingly. For just small changes, try messing with Photoshop filters & hues.

That's great. I had to look at my keyboard before I understood it, but after that, funny.

Either get photoshop, or download a program called GIMP, and get a .dds plugin for it.
