Help: Rainmeter Application • Re: "Invalid .bmp file" Error When Selecting a Header Image in the .rmskin Packager

Just tried it now and can confirm that the .bmp file that you posted balala does indeed work for me, and it displays correctly when installing the .rmskin file! Hopefully I can figure out how to get images into the right format in the future with the last few posts you both have sent, thanks again for all your help!
The issue was most likely the bit depth of the bitmap image. Headers should be set to a bit depth of 24-bit; higher settings (if set to 32-bit) will be invalid for use as headers in skins.

In paint.net program the option is available in the BMP save dialog:
headerBMPditdepth24.jpg
As mentioned, other graphic editors offer similar options when saving bitmap images.
