How do I import images from Bmps to use as sprites?

Goto Quest->Tiles
You'll see as the first tilepage a bunch of sprites used in the game. Select the point where you want to import the sprite, and click on the Grab button. Open the .bmp and pick the tile/sprite in the image that you want to import. You may have to re-color the sprite unless it was made to fit in that palette (shouldn't be incredibly difficult to recolor though).

When I try It says "File not loaded" at the bottom of the screen. What am I doing wrong?

Make sure the .bmp file is only 16 or 256 colors. I'm partial to 16-color mostly, unless I'm making a spritesheet with multiple rows of 16.
