Ok well it says the file starts with a directory character because you have a \ infront of the directory. It says the image does not have power of 2 dimensions because 660 is not a power of 2. I reccomend doing 512 by 512 or if you want a larger one, 1024 by 1024. You can also do long and skinny textures like 1024 by 512 as long as each side is a power of 2.
