Summary
(Apologies if this isn't the right place to post) Hi there! Can anyone help? I was trying to make some Mack sprites for Ace and being a total GIMP noob, I think I messed up. I don't feel like asking someone to make sprites for me as I really want to learn myself. I tried looking up various topics and found things like this one, which left me even more confused about conversion so now I'm not sure. The problem:

Hi there! Can anyone help? I was trying to make some Mack sprites for Ace and being a total GIMP noob, I think I messed up. I don't feel like asking someone to make sprites for me as I really want to learn myself.
I tried looking up various topics and found things like this one, which left me even more confused about conversion so now I'm not sure.
The problem:
I made this sprite at Loose Leaf:
Protected download
But ran into problems:
1) Figuring out whether I should create a New File with transparency, or Open the image I had saved as a PNG in Paint
2) When creating a New File, figuring out what pixels they should be. (I figured it didn't matter so much as long as I exported it with a $ in the filename)
3) But when I opened up the image in GIMP, the picture opened in another window (grrr)
4) I ended up copying and pasting straight into that New File with transparency
5) Then I tried cutting the spritesheet into 3 x 4
6) Didn't work :/ I ended up with the left side cut off.
Protected download
7) I know this probably had something to do with this thing called Layers. Could someone kindly advise me? I will learn! I promise!
Thanks in advance to any kind souls
