Woah, what'd I just do?

I was trying to make a new skin for the ghost...just a simple hue change. I chose this bright neon green color that I some how made, injected it using HMT3, then went online, Blood Gulch (the map I used to open it with), and looked at the ghost there. It was the same, regular purple...at least, it was from far away. As soon as I was touching it (or at least right next to it) it suddenly became some crazy mesh of green and purple! It looks *very* cool. Unfortunately when I got on the ghost it reverted back to it's normal purple color, and when I got back off and looked at it (when I was right next to it) it did the color morph thing again.

Soooo 2 things:

Did everyone already know you can do this and I'm just being some lame old fart?

and

How do I make it so it doesn't do that color metamorphosis and it's just plain green?

thers also another map i usually change when doing those things its teh reflect map i think, on the ghost i belive its actually the banshee one, all the bitmap looks like is a close up pick of the hull with a highlight on it, change that to green too and ull get the green ur going for.
