When I try to color those, I can only use like gray

If I copy and paste your 128x128 into a new paint window, I can add green, but when I run it through spritewiz and go in-game, it shows the gray b/g w/ the xhair.

Are you using Alphatest in the SprWiz making process? I think you have to use that, just edit the color in paint...magnify by 800%. That's what I do

Instead of trying to 'paint over' the crosshair with a new color, simply locate the appropriate colors in the 256 color palette and change them to your liking. This ensures that the last color in the palette will remain gray (which is necessary for transparency).

When I download the link decap gave out for the white and black xhair, I open it in mspaint and do the 800% thing like I always do. But w/ this xhair I am trying to customize, as well as a rare one here and there, I can only add a gray (gray, white, black).

The only time I can add green to this xhair is if I
open it in mspaint and do the 800% thing like I always do
select all, paste into new paint window (size is same ect..)
when I try it in-game, I get green, but gray around it.

So ya decap I'm doing alpha
No unfor, I can't locate the appropriate colors

I made the model myself using Milkshape3D- I was not aware of a svencoop model otherwise, I would've stolen it as my first choice. I will take the team coloring suggestion into mind, although it is not really necessary since HEV arms are team colored.

I do not use MSPaint

Steps (using photoshop):

1) Open the crosshair using SprWiz and decompile the sprite (i.e. save bmp).
2) Open the bmp using Photoshop.
3) Titlebar-->Image--->Mode--->Color Table (gives you access to the 256 color palette)
4) Select the color responsible for the sprite color you wish to change, i.e. double click and move the cursor so that you get the color you want.
