in dot halo go to the bitmaps tag and go to the skin you want then go to the raw data window ad hit extract... then go to photoshop (get the .dds plugin from somewhere) and open it. When savig make sure u save .dds and u save the type it says on the bitmap (1,2,3,4,5) it will tell you in the raw data what type it is. Sry if its confusing.
