It is possible that you are compiling the skin to the wrong model. You have to compile the skin back to the medusa.igb then you can rename it to what ever skin you want

What Gimp do you have? I have Gimp 2, and to the left there should be a toolbox, although if it isnt you should be able to go into the tool tab and click toolbox. And then there is a box with the current color in it, if you click the box it should open the thing to change what color you are using.

Okay so my toolbox isn't on the left, and when I go to change the color in the  in the tools tab, there is nothing that says toolbox, just Create New Toolbox. Should I just reopen Gimp and see what happens?

Whenever I tried to save the skin that i just named, it always ends up with the wrong thing, fieryphoenix.xcf, but shouldnt it be fieryphoenix.bmp, then I change it to fieryphoenix.dds. What is wrong with it? Oh and when ever I try to change the xfc to dds, I get a message reading, You can use this dialog to save to the GIMP XCF format. Use File→Export to export to other file formats. Im really confused.

When ever I do file save as in GIMP I can choose what file format I want it to be.

Yes but did I have to download 2 files ? If yes then where do I extract the files to?

No, you just need the one file and no exctracting needed. Once it is downloaded, just copy and paste the dds file (or application) into your plugins folder. But I'm not sure if that would be the problem or not, I don't know much about Gimp. I just know you need that plugin.
