How do you make these textures smaller so they can fit a specific model? I've got this glove texture which is a big one, so it can't fit on my other models, I need to make a smaller version.

I am not exactly sure what you mean, but, my guess is that you are trying to use a file from one model in another model. Usualy the easiest way to fix this is to rip the skin out of the model you want to use the gloves in, then in photoshop (or gimp or MSPaint, what ever) copy/paste the gloves into the skin you just ripped, resize if needed, save it, then recompile the skin back into the model you want to have the gloves show up in.

There are other ways to do this, but you need to know how to mesh/UV map models to do this, which is fine, but a little more involved than most people care for.

What I mean is, I got this glove texture off this Mosin Nagant and want to use it on other weapons; however, some weapons require a smaller size than the size the texture I got off the Nagant. How can I down size it?

you can use paint ..
it's quite easy ..
goto picture->attributes
then you can change the size of the texture ..

iamnotabear, unless the SMD in the MDL uses the same uv map orientations you will still need to move stuff around even if you do get the BMP resized to the right size.

If you use irfanview at http://www.irfanview.com/ you can resize the BMPs but, do not expect to get the gloves to match up until you copy/paste (or nudge) the gloves image to where the new MDL needs it.
