It is good practice to create images with dimensions evenly divisible by 2 otherwise you risk the chance of it not being compatable with a certain compression/decompression algorithm.

640x480 is divisible by 2, but when you go to save it hit D3D/DDS, but at the end of your name put .dds, and it should work, make sure no mip maps, and the right DXT.

I thought it had to be divisible by 4?

Yeah, I have been having the same problem as him, but there is no option for D3D/DDS only a DDS option and when I try to save the save button cannot be pressed :(
