well first u have to download the .DDS plugin.
google it.

then open up HMT and go to bitmaps and find the thing u wana skin.

then save it and open in photoshop CS.

paint it and stuff then save it as DXT1 (1 alpha) and then inject it into the bitmaps part where u first saved it.

and then play and u have a skin!!~

This is a Halo CE discussion, so I believe that is not necessary (unless he posted in the wrong section).

Just save your file as a .tif (power of 2 dimensions, like 2x2, 4x4, 6x6, 128x128, 512x1024, etc) in your data directory, and just use tool to convert it to .bitmap.
