excellent!
thanks CapitainCox!!

edit: except there seems to be something funny with the imperial files--while the original .dds files were 5kb each, and the metric .dds files were 5mb each, each of these imperial .dds 's are now 18mb [!] and additionally aren't recognized by any of my image software (including photoshop)...

edit2: they do work in game, however at the magnification level they appear at they are partially occluded by the edge of the screen...
would it be possible to have them appear initially at lower magnification levels?
also, regarding file size--what was the bit depth of the original image before converting to .dds? 24-bit should work, no? and what about rle compression? (or does that mess with the transparency?)
