for one, don't use sue's workshop in combination with any other editor
for two, what's mojibake
for three, try re-downloading the exe and not using SW

Why is it that i always realize my mistake RIGHT after posting? Apparently it was something about read-only. And also mojibake is corrupted text that is supposed to be in another language but is just gibberish due to encoding problems.

To change a PBM to a BMP, go into CaveEditor, change .pbm to .bmp, and uncheck "Use (C)Pixel". Now you can edit the BMPs using an image editor such as Paint.NET or GIR.painting.tools.

Using Sue's Workshop to edit a mod instead of Cave Editor is similar to doing a 1 HP run of WTF Story instead of playing regular Cave Story with 100 HP at the start.

That's a good simile because SW is far more attractive than CE

And WTF Story is far more attractive than cheating at Cave Story.

And also, when you create a mod, you MUST create a copy of the Cave Story exe because if you use that one copy and you mess up, you'd screw up your only copy of the game and you'd have to re-download it(although I don't do mods, I'm just telling you this to save you the grief in the long run).
