You'll need to be more specific about what you do Striker... When you goto file-open in Upaint then browse to the Character folder where all the .upp files are, what exactly happens from there (exact error plz) Thanks.

if i clear the image how do i know where that belt was?
Practise
The easiest thing to do is leave Upaint open with the character you're skinning. When you paint over an area on the body you can see where that area is on the body texture on the left... You don't need to blank out the original image, just paint over it using layers in Photoshop. What I do is make a layer for the arms, a layer for the legs, etc...
When I've done a skin I tend to have the original image as the bottom layer and then maybe 20-30 layers on top of it with the stuff I've done... It means the image could be 20MB or something but if you keep it when you've done you don't need to re-define where everything is if you skin the same character again.
Once you've done it a few times you'll know from the image where everything is and just to be sure you can throw that image onto the character in Upaint as you go along to make sure it's ok.
Because I did it that way that's how I skin so fast, I could probably do a fairly decent new one every day if I wanted to
