Paint it not the best program to make presets with since it doesn't work with layers. I'd highly recommend downloading Gimp from here: gimp.org
It's absolutely virus free and safe to use.
Here's a good preset tutorial: http://www.feral-heart.com/index.php?option=com_jfusion&Itemid=2&jfile=index.php&topic=8149.0
Really all you do is open the body part, color it, and then export it correctly. What exactly are you having trouble on?

Im having trouble on the part where it says to press something like press ctrl+A and ctrl+C (doesnt do anything) and then it says to click file, open. But there are 2 things, file and open, so open isnt in the file thing! then it says to go to FH and open either preset_1 or preset_2. its confusing because I already was at preset 1 or 2 or the reference. And the eye thing she/he was talking about wasnt there and Im not sure if I know how to export it. Also, do u have to pay for gimp? because if u do I probably wont be able to get it. Thx!

You should download GIMP it's free:)

Is it when you're creating the mane for the preset that you get confused?
Ctrl+A is a short command for marking everything, and Ctrl+C is the short command for copy.
The short command for pasting in what you've copied is Ctrl+V.

No, its not the mane, but thx, Shallow. I think I just dont know how to export it. yes, that's it. I dont know how to export it. Can someone tell me how?

You need to go in-game, then before you log in you can click the Preset Maker button, find the preset number (ex. preset_10) you've been working on, and after you've checked it out and if you think it looks ok you just click the export button.

I did and used preset 2 but it just showed the regular preset 2, not what I did. Im confused!

What did you save your files as? Jpg? Png?
