misto tries spriting, also new trader portraits

Convert them to a proper DMI file.

Open Byond, click the gear in the upper right, and click "Open Dream Maker."

From there, click File, then click "New Environment", this is effectively the folder where you'll store your sprites.

Then click File, then New. Where it says Type, select "Icon File (.dmi)"

A DMI file is a collage of various different images that you create. There are two types of sub-images in DMI files, the names of which I don't know. The color-palette button creates single sprite images, while the camera button allows for the creation of linked directional images (think the different directions for wearing clothes.), and also animations. Set #Frames to 1 if you don't want animations.

Byond also allows you to make images transparent, which is notably helpful.

Don't forget to label everything in your DMI file. When you're done, you should be able to upload the DMI like you would any other file.
