Importing Textures/Backgrounds to kgpanels doesnt work

Hey...

i try to import those 2 textures to kgpanels (jpg and the .tga' in there) but it just wont work....i recognized the *2 /even tho tried smth like 128*128 aswell as 128*140 etc....)
i also recognized the \\ to import the path...i just dont see the texture ingame (even after /rl)-->no errors with loading of them...its just that i cant see the textures...

to test it that i realy dont make anything wrong with the path i tried a normal .tga from an addon like skada and it works fine (texture is shown and rdy to use even w/o /rl)

i convert the jpg's either with photoshop cs 3 (create new file with right properties and copy'n paste the wanted textures in there) or use irfaniew (resize) and save as .tga

did i missed anything or what am i doing wrong?

thx in advance for reading

regards

the image themselves do not follow the rules for wow images.

Metall_GUlli.tga is 100 x 80 pixels
the log file is 176x176

Image dimensions must be a power of 2

2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024

this is a wow requirement for an image be used.

WoWUI.Incgamers has an excellent guide on preparing textures (for use with eePanels however all of it, except Section 4, is still relevant for kgPanels)
