Alright I'll try to explain this in the best detail I can for you if your serious on this post....... The easiest way to apply a skin in the way I know it to use dothalo and Go to the Bitm. tag and click on the skin you are trying to apply, if you have a warthog skin it is most likely warthog_standard to you would click on that bitm. and A view of it would come up, To simply Inject it you would click Inject on the right side of the screen and then choose your warthog_standard skin and it would apply it over the original, This is the same way you can get the warthog skin, you would go to warthog_standard and click Extract on the left side on the screen to extract the bitm. you wish to Edit.

ALSO before you apply a warthog skin Make sure that the skin in the map is Internalized, to Internalize a bitm. you need a program that will do it, I reccomend H2 Bitmap Internalizer. You would open the program then up top click "open map" then you would scroll down to the warthog main bitm. called warthog_standard. Then where it says Select bitmaps reflexative Number you would drop that down to 1, then you click "use the non proper method". then wait for it to internalize. Then you can apply your skin. (NOTE) you only need to internalize Weapons and Vehicles

You also could just open the shared.map in Ch2r and find the warthog.bitm in vehicles then double click it and then press inject. This method, however, applys the skin to all maps and is not what you would want to use if you are going to post your mod to the public in a .serenity, .ppf, or .sppf patch.
