Black box weapons?

I have been modding FTL for a while now, but I didn't get the hang of making textures for the weapons. When I finally did, they kept on showing up as black boxes, nothing or a basic laser. Could someone please help me? Here is the link to the .ftl file that I am using.

I can't seem to download the file. Could you check if the link works for you?

It's a file format problem. The strip3's color mode was indexed rather than 8-bit RGB. By saving the image with the correct color mode it shows up correctly in game. : )

You can either do it yourself or grab the supposedly working version here.

Thanks!

Edit: Just a quick question, how do you change it to 8 bit RGB?
